FujiFilm T200 vs Fujifilm X30

Take into account, the weight of an ILC will differ based on the lens you have attached at that moment. Following is the front view dimension comparison of the T200 and the Fujifilm X30.

Factoring in size and weight, the portability grade of the T200 and Fujifilm X30 is 94 and 80 respectively.

Oftentimes, it is very hard to visualise the contrast between sensor sizing just by reading through technical specs. The visual underneath will help provide you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the T200 and Fujifilm X30.

As you have seen, both of those cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The T200 featuring a tinier sensor will make shooting shallow depth of field more challenging and the FujiFilm T200 will give you extra detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Greater resolution will let you crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The older T200 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
