Fujifilm F660EXR vs Pentax XG-1 Sensor Comparison

					

					

						
Normally, it can be tough to visualise the difference between sensor sizing merely by checking specifications. The photograph here may provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm F660EXR and XG-1.
To sum up, both the cameras posses the exact same megapixels albeit not the same sensor sizing. The Fujifilm F660EXR uses the bigger sensor which should make achieving shallower DOF simpler. The older Fujifilm F660EXR is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
