FujiFilm Z700EXR vs Sony W560 Sensor Comparison

Plainly, each of the cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The Z700EXR because of its larger sensor will make shooting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Sony W560 will result in extra detail having its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also help you crop images more aggressively. The older Z700EXR will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
