Casio EX-Z270 vs Fujifilm S9400W Sensor Comparison

Generally, it is very hard to picture the gap between sensor measurements merely by looking at specifications. The photograph below should give you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the EX-Z270 and Fujifilm S9400W.

Plainly, the 2 cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The EX-Z270 using its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF more challenging and the Fujifilm S9400W will resolve extra detail with its extra 6MP. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop photos somewhat more aggressively. The older EX-Z270 is going to be behind when it comes to sensor tech.
