Fujifilm F500 EXR vs Panasonic 3D1 Sensor Comparison

					

					

						
Generally, its difficult to visualise the gap in sensor dimensions purely by seeing a spec sheet. The picture below will offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm F500 EXR and 3D1.
Clearly, the 2 cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The Fujifilm F500 EXR because of its bigger sensor will make getting shallower DOF simpler and the Fujifilm F500 EXR will show greater detail having its extra 4MP. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm F500 EXR will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
