FujiFilm JX350 vs Ricoh CX1 Sensor Comparison

Quite often, it is tough to visualise the gap between sensor sizing just by checking technical specs. The visual below will offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the JX350 and CX1.

As you can tell, both of these cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same MP. You can expect the FujiFilm JX350 to resolve extra detail using its extra 7 Megapixels. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop shots a little more aggressively. The younger JX350 is going to have an edge with regard to sensor innovation.
