The AX350 was introduced 3 years earlier than the P330 and that is a fairly large difference as far as camera technology is concerned. Each of the cameras feature the same body design (Compact).

Before we go straight to a in-depth comparison, here is a quick highlight of how the AX350 matches up vs the P330 when considering portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

When you are planning to carry your camera, you're going to have to factor its weight and proportions.

Take into account, the weight of an ILC will change depending on the lens you are utilising at the time. Underneath is a front view proportions comparison of the AX350 versus the P330.

Taking into consideration dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the AX350 and P330 is 94 and 92 respectively.

Sometimes, it is very hard to visualize the contrast in sensor sizing simply by checking out technical specs. The photograph here will help give you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the AX350 and P330.

As you have seen, both the cameras feature different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The AX350 having a smaller sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF more difficult and the FujiFilm AX350 will produce extra detail using its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also let you crop pictures way more aggressively. The older AX350 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
