Casio EX-ZS10 vs Nikon S2900 Sensor Comparison

In many cases, it is very hard to visualise the difference in sensor sizing simply by viewing a spec sheet. The photograph underneath should provide you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the EX-ZS10 and S2900.

Clearly, both of those cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You can expect to see the Nikon S2900 to result in greater detail due to its extra 6MP. Greater resolution will allow you to crop images much more aggressively. The older EX-ZS10 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
