Casio EX-Z90 vs Fujifilm X10 Sensor Comparison

Quite often, it is difficult to visualise the gap between sensor dimensions just by checking a spec sheet. The pic here will offer you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the EX-Z90 and Fujifilm X10.

Clearly, both of those cameras have got the exact same megapixel count albeit not the same sensor dimensions. The EX-Z90 contains the tinier sensor which should make obtaining shallower DOF harder. The more aged EX-Z90 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
