Casio TRYX vs Nikon S01 Sensor Comparison

In many cases, it's tough to visualize the gap between sensor dimensions just by reading through technical specs. The picture here might give you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the TRYX and S01.

As you have seen, both the cameras have different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The TRYX because of its bigger sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Casio TRYX will give you greater detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also let you crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The more aged TRYX is going to be behind in sensor innovation.
