Fujifilm JZ100 vs Ricoh WG-4 GPS Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Sometimes, it can be tough to imagine the difference between sensor sizes only by reading through specifications. The picture here should offer you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm JZ100 and WG-4 GPS.
Plainly, both of the cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing but different resolution. You should anticipate the Ricoh WG-4 GPS to give greater detail because of its extra 2MP. Greater resolution will let you crop pics far more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm JZ100 is going to be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
