FujiFilm S200EXR vs Ricoh CX3 Sensor Comparison

As you can plainly see, each of the cameras provide different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The S200EXR due to its larger sensor will make shooting shallower DOF less difficult and the FujiFilm S200EXR will give more detail having its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop pics more aggressively. The older S200EXR is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
