FujiFilm JX350 vs Ricoh GR Digital IV Sensor Comparison

In many cases, it is tough to visualize the contrast between sensor sizing just by looking at a spec sheet. The photograph underneath might give you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the JX350 and GR Digital IV.

Clearly, both cameras have different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The JX350 with its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF tougher and the FujiFilm JX350 will resolve extra detail because of its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop photos a bit more aggressively. The older JX350 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
