FujiFilm S3200 vs Nikon D6 Sensor Comparison

Sometimes, it can be tough to visualize the contrast in sensor sizing simply by viewing technical specs. The visual underneath will provide you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the S3200 and D6.

As you can tell, both cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The S3200 featuring a smaller sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field more challenging and the Nikon D6 will render extra detail as a result of its extra 7 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The older S3200 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
