Casio EX-ZR400 vs Olympus VG-160 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Oftentimes, its hard to see the gap in sensor sizing purely by going through technical specs. The visual here will help provide you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the EX-ZR400 and VG-160.
As you have seen, the 2 cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same MP. You should expect to see the Casio EX-ZR400 to show greater detail with its extra 2MP. Greater resolution will help you crop images much more aggressively. The newer EX-ZR400 will have an edge with regard to sensor tech.
