FujiFilm AV200 vs Pentax K-1 Sensor Comparison

Quite often, it can be difficult to imagine the gap in sensor sizes only by going through specs. The image underneath will give you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the AV200 and K-1.

All in all, both of these cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The AV200 featuring a smaller sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field harder and the Pentax K-1 will provide more detail having its extra 22 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop shots way more aggressively. The more aged AV200 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
