Casio EX-ZR800 vs Leica D-LUX 5 Sensor Comparison

          

          

            
Generally, it is very tough to visualize the difference between sensor sizes merely by reading through specs. The pic underneath might offer you a better sense of the sensor sizes in the EX-ZR800 and D-LUX 5.
All in all, both of these cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The EX-ZR800 using its tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field trickier and the Casio EX-ZR800 will resolve more detail with its extra 6MP. Higher resolution will allow you to crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The newer EX-ZR800 provides a benefit in sensor technology.
