Fujifilm JZ100 vs Fujifilm X20 Sensor Comparison

Generally, it can be difficult to visualize the difference between sensor dimensions merely by checking a spec sheet. The pic underneath will offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm JZ100 and Fujifilm X20.

Clearly, both of those cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The Fujifilm JZ100 due to its tinier sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field more difficult and the Fujifilm JZ100 will give you greater detail having its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm JZ100 is going to be behind in sensor innovation.
