FujiFilm S4000 vs Olympus SH-1 Sensor Comparison
Often, it's difficult to picture the gap between sensor dimensions just by looking at a spec sheet. The image underneath should offer you a clearer sense of the sensor sizes in the S4000 and SH-1.
Clearly, the two cameras feature the identical sensor size but different megapixels. You should expect to see the Olympus SH-1 to resolve greater detail having its extra 2MP. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop photos way more aggressively. The more aged S4000 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
