As you can see, each of the cameras come with the identical sensor size albeit different megapixels. You can count on the Fujifilm SL1000 to render more detail as a result of its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will help you crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The more aged S1800 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
