FujiFilm F300EXR vs Panasonic ZS35 Sensor Comparison

Generally, its hard to visualise the difference between sensor sizes purely by reviewing specifications. The image here may give you a clearer sense of the sensor dimensions in the F300EXR and ZS35.

Plainly, each of the cameras offer different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The F300EXR because of its bigger sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field simpler and the Panasonic ZS35 will offer you more detail due to its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also let you crop photographs a little more aggressively. The more aged F300EXR is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
