FujiFilm AV250 vs Nikon A100 Sensor Comparison

To sum up, each of these cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same resolution. You should expect the Nikon A100 to produce greater detail having an extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop pictures much more aggressively. The more aged AV250 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
