FujiFilm JX300 vs Fujifilm HS30EXR Sensor Comparison
Generally, it is very difficult to imagine the contrast in sensor sizes simply by researching a spec sheet. The pic underneath should give you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the JX300 and Fujifilm HS30EXR.
Clearly, each of these cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The JX300 having a smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF tougher and the Fujifilm HS30EXR will provide you with more detail with its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also let you crop pictures way more aggressively. The more aged JX300 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
