FujiFilm Z70 vs Pentax Efina Sensor Comparison

Usually, it can be tough to see the gap in sensor dimensions just by checking out a spec sheet. The image here may give you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the Z70 and Efina.

Clearly, both cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You can expect to see the Pentax Efina to provide greater detail because of its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop photos much more aggressively. The more aged Z70 will be behind when it comes to sensor tech.
