FujiFilm JZ300 vs Nikon L19 Sensor Comparison

Generally, it is very tough to see the gap in sensor sizes only by going through technical specs. The pic below may provide you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the JZ300 and L19.

As you can tell, each of the cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The JZ300 having a bigger sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field simpler and the FujiFilm JZ300 will produce extra detail because of its extra 4MP. Higher resolution will also let you crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The younger JZ300 is going to have an edge when it comes to sensor innovation.
