FujiFilm S2500HD vs Olympus SP-810 UZ Sensor Comparison

Sometimes, it is tough to envision the contrast between sensor dimensions just by reviewing a spec sheet. The image below should offer you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the S2500HD and SP-810 UZ.

Clearly, the 2 cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You can expect to see the Olympus SP-810 UZ to deliver extra detail because of its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop pics much more aggressively. The more aged S2500HD is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
