FujiFilm T300 vs Nikon S5200 Sensor Comparison

Oftentimes, it is hard to see the difference between sensor measurements just by reading a spec sheet. The visual here will offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the T300 and S5200.

Clearly, the 2 cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You can anticipate the Nikon S5200 to deliver extra detail using its extra 2MP. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The older T300 is going to be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
