FujiFilm S4000 vs Fujifilm S4800 Sensor Comparison

					

					

						
Often, it is difficult to imagine the difference in sensor dimensions purely by looking through specifications. The image here will help give you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the S4000 and Fujifilm S4800.
Plainly, the two cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit different resolution. You can count on the Fujifilm S4800 to render extra detail with its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The more aged S4000 will be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
