FujiFilm JZ300 vs Fujifilm F900EXR Sensor Comparison
Often, it can be difficult to visualize the contrast between sensor sizes merely by reading through a spec sheet. The pic here should give you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the JZ300 and Fujifilm F900EXR.
Clearly, both cameras offer different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The JZ300 using its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field trickier and the Fujifilm F900EXR will resolve extra detail with its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will help you crop pics a little more aggressively. The more aged JZ300 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
