Sometimes, it's tough to visualize the contrast between sensor dimensions purely by going over a spec sheet. The image underneath will offer you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the Finepix Z90 and L32.

Clearly, both of those cameras come with the identical sensor size but different MP. You should expect to see the Nikon L32 to deliver greater detail because of its extra 6 Megapixels.
