FujiFilm F300EXR vs Fujifilm JZ200 Sensor Comparison

Quite often, its difficult to envision the gap between sensor sizes just by looking at a spec sheet. The picture here might give you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the F300EXR and Fujifilm JZ200.

Clearly, both the cameras offer different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The F300EXR because of its bigger sensor will make achieving shallower DOF less difficult and the Fujifilm JZ200 will resolve more detail due to its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will help you crop shots a little more aggressively. The more aged F300EXR is going to be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
