Casio EX-ZR400 vs Fujifilm S4200 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Usually, it's hard to envision the difference between sensor sizes merely by reading through specifications. The image underneath may provide you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the EX-ZR400 and Fujifilm S4200.
Plainly, the two cameras feature the identical sensor size albeit not the same megapixels. You can count on the Casio EX-ZR400 to resolve more detail with its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will help you crop photographs way more aggressively. The more recent EX-ZR400 will have an advantage in sensor tech.
