FujiFilm S1600 vs FujiFilm S4000 Sensor Comparison

Quite often, it is hard to visualise the gap between sensor sizing just by reading through a spec sheet. The photograph below will help provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the S1600 and S4000.

As you can see, both the cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing but not the same MP. You should anticipate the FujiFilm S4000 to give extra detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Greater resolution can also help you crop pics a little more aggressively. The older S1600 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
