FujiFilm AX350 vs Kodak M530 Sensor Comparison

Quite often, its difficult to see the gap between sensor sizes purely by reviewing a spec sheet. The image here may give you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the AX350 and M530.

Clearly, each of these cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same resolution. You should expect the FujiFilm AX350 to offer you greater detail as a result of its extra 4MP. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop photographs far more aggressively. The more recent AX350 is going to have a benefit with regard to sensor innovation.
