Casio EX-Z2000 vs Fujifilm XQ2 Sensor Comparison

Quite often, it is tough to visualize the difference between sensor measurements just by looking at technical specs. The visual here will offer you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the EX-Z2000 and Fujifilm XQ2.

As you have seen, the 2 cameras offer different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The EX-Z2000 having a tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallow DOF more challenging and the Casio EX-Z2000 will resolve more detail using its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will let you crop pics a little more aggressively. The older EX-Z2000 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
