Casio EX-ZR10 vs Samsung CL80 Sensor Comparison

Usually, it can be difficult to envision the gap between sensor dimensions merely by reading through a spec sheet. The pic here should provide you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the EX-ZR10 and CL80.

Clearly, the 2 cameras provide the same sensor dimensions but not the same megapixels. You can expect to see the Samsung CL80 to resolve more detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Greater resolution can also let you crop images more aggressively. The younger EX-ZR10 is going to have an advantage when it comes to sensor technology.
