Casio EX-ZR700 vs Leica V-Lux 40 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Usually, it is hard to envision the gap in sensor sizes just by checking out a spec sheet. The pic here will help provide you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the EX-ZR700 and V-Lux 40.
Clearly, both of those cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You can expect to see the Casio EX-ZR700 to produce more detail having its extra 2MP. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop images much more aggressively. The more modern EX-ZR700 is going to have an edge when it comes to sensor innovation.
