FujiFilm JV200 vs Kodak Z950 Sensor Comparison

Sometimes, it is very difficult to visualise the difference between sensor sizing only by reading through technical specs. The visual underneath will help offer you a more clear sense of the sensor sizes in the JV200 and Z950.

As you have seen, each of the cameras have the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same MP. You should expect the FujiFilm JV200 to resolve extra detail because of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop shots a bit more aggressively. The younger JV200 is going to have an advantage in sensor innovation.
