Fujifilm F500 EXR vs Olympus E-330 Sensor Comparison

					

					

						
Typically, it's difficult to visualize the difference in sensor dimensions merely by viewing specifications. The picture here should offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm F500 EXR and E-330.
Plainly, both the cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The Fujifilm F500 EXR using its smaller sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF more challenging and the Fujifilm F500 EXR will provide you with greater detail because of its extra 9 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop photographs more aggressively. The more recent Fujifilm F500 EXR provides an edge in sensor innovation.
