FujiFilm HS20 EXR vs Olympus 1s Sensor Comparison
Generally, it is very tough to picture the difference between sensor sizes only by reading through a spec sheet. The pic here will provide you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the HS20 EXR and 1s.
Clearly, each of the cameras provide different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The HS20 EXR with its tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field more difficult and the FujiFilm HS20 EXR will give greater detail because of its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will enable you to crop shots more aggressively. The more aged HS20 EXR is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
