FujiFilm JV200 vs FujiFilm S2500HD Sensor Comparison

As you can see, both of those cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same megapixels. You should expect the FujiFilm JV200 to deliver more detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also help you crop photographs somewhat more aggressively. The younger JV200 will have an edge with regard to sensor tech.
