FujiFilm S4000 vs Sony TX200V Sensor Comparison

Oftentimes, it's difficult to envision the difference between sensor measurements purely by reading a spec sheet. The photograph here should provide you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the S4000 and TX200V.

Clearly, both of these cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same megapixels. You should expect the Sony TX200V to offer greater detail as a result of its extra 4MP. Higher resolution will help you crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The older S4000 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
