Casio EX-ZR1000 vs Olympus VR-330 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Often, its tough to see the gap between sensor sizing only by checking technical specs. The photograph below may offer you a greater sense of the sensor dimensions in the EX-ZR1000 and VR-330.
As you can tell, the 2 cameras come with the identical sensor size albeit not the same megapixels. You should expect the Casio EX-ZR1000 to give you more detail having an extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop shots a good deal more aggressively. The younger EX-ZR1000 is going to have an advantage in sensor technology.
