FujiFilm S3200 vs Fujifilm IS Pro Sensor Comparison

Sometimes, it's hard to visualize the difference between sensor sizes purely by reading technical specs. The pic below may provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the S3200 and Fujifilm IS Pro.

As you can tell, the 2 cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The S3200 using its tinier sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field harder and the FujiFilm S3200 will offer you greater detail having an extra 8 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The fresher S3200 provides a benefit in sensor innovation.
