Casio EX-ZR800 vs Panasonic ZS70 Sensor Comparison

More often than not, it is very difficult to envision the gap in sensor dimensions only by viewing a spec sheet. The image underneath might give you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the EX-ZR800 and ZS70.

Clearly, each of these cameras come with the identical sensor size albeit not the same MP. You can expect the Panasonic ZS70 to result in greater detail as a result of its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The more aged EX-ZR800 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
