FujiFilm S3200 vs Olympus 1 Sensor Comparison

Quite often, its tough to imagine the gap between sensor sizes only by reading through specs. The image below should provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the S3200 and 1.

As you can plainly see, each of the cameras offer different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The S3200 using its tinier sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF harder and the FujiFilm S3200 will give greater detail using its extra 2MP. Greater resolution will also let you crop pics a little more aggressively. The more aged S3200 is going to be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
