As you can see, both of the cameras come with the identical sensor size albeit different megapixels. You should count on the FujiFilm JV200 to produce extra detail because of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also let you crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The younger JV200 should have an advantage in sensor innovation.
