Casio EX-ZR800 vs Sony W800 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Often, it is very hard to see the gap in sensor sizing only by viewing specs. The graphic below might provide you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the EX-ZR800 and W800.
All in all, each of these cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same resolution. You should expect to see the Sony W800 to result in more detail because of its extra 4MP. Greater resolution can also let you crop photos much more aggressively.
