FujiFilm S2950 vs Sony H90 Sensor Comparison

Often, its hard to visualize the difference between sensor dimensions purely by reading through specifications. The picture here should provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the S2950 and H90.

Plainly, the two cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but different resolution. You can expect to see the Sony H90 to give you greater detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop pics much more aggressively. The more aged S2950 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
