Casio EX-Z550 vs Samsung WB350F Sensor Comparison

More often than not, it is very difficult to envision the contrast between sensor dimensions purely by reading specifications. The pic below should give you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the EX-Z550 and WB350F.

Plainly, both cameras provide the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same MP. You should expect the Samsung WB350F to offer you extra detail because of its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop photographs more aggressively. The more aged EX-Z550 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
