Fujifilm HS35EXR vs Sony WX350 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Generally, it is hard to envision the gap between sensor measurements only by reviewing technical specs. The graphic here should provide you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm HS35EXR and WX350.
As you can tell, the 2 cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm HS35EXR with its larger sensor will make shooting shallow DOF less difficult and the Sony WX350 will offer greater detail because of its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop images somewhat more aggressively. The older Fujifilm HS35EXR is going to be behind in sensor innovation.
