Casio EX-ZS10 vs Sony A7S II Sensor Comparison

More often than not, it is difficult to picture the difference in sensor dimensions only by looking through specifications. The picture below will help offer you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the EX-ZS10 and A7S II.

Plainly, the 2 cameras have different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The EX-ZS10 because of its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallow DOF harder and the Casio EX-ZS10 will result in more detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop shots a bit more aggressively. The more aged EX-ZS10 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
