Casio EX-ZR100 vs Nikon S6000 Sensor Comparison
Sometimes, its hard to envision the contrast between sensor dimensions only by reading specifications. The image here might offer you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the EX-ZR100 and S6000.
To sum up, both cameras feature the identical sensor size albeit not the same MP. You should expect the Nikon S6000 to offer extra detail because of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will allow you to crop photographs way more aggressively. The newer EX-ZR100 will have an edge when it comes to sensor tech.
