FujiFilm JX300 vs Nikon P7800 Sensor Comparison

Generally, it's tough to envision the difference in sensor sizes purely by viewing specs. The picture here may provide you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the JX300 and P7800.

All in all, each of the cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The JX300 having a smaller sensor will make achieving shallow DOF trickier and the FujiFilm JX300 will result in more detail using its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop images way more aggressively. The more aged JX300 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
