In many cases, it can be hard to envision the contrast in sensor sizing purely by looking through technical specs. The photograph here will provide you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the EX-Z800 and L32.

As you can tell, both the cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same resolution. You should count on the Nikon L32 to render extra detail due to its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The older EX-Z800 will be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
