Casio EX-Z35 vs Sony TX55 Sensor Comparison
Sometimes, its hard to envision the difference between sensor sizing just by going over a spec sheet. The visual here will provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the EX-Z35 and TX55.
As you can see, both cameras feature the identical sensor size albeit not the same MP. You should count on the Sony TX55 to offer extra detail due to its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop photographs way more aggressively. The older EX-Z35 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
