Casio EX-Z450 vs Sony W610 Sensor Comparison
Often, it is very hard to see the contrast in sensor dimensions merely by seeing specs. The image here might provide you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the EX-Z450 and W610.
As you can plainly see, each of the cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels.
