FujiFilm Z700EXR vs Pentax Efina Sensor Comparison

Sometimes, it is very tough to visualize the contrast in sensor sizing only by checking out specifications. The photograph here might give you a greater sense of the sensor dimensions in the Z700EXR and Efina.

Plainly, both cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The Z700EXR due to its bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field less difficult and the Pentax Efina will produce extra detail utilizing its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will enable you to crop pictures way more aggressively. The older Z700EXR will be behind when it comes to sensor tech.
