Fujifilm JZ200 vs Fujifilm S2 Pro Sensor Comparison

Typically, it is very tough to picture the gap in sensor measurements only by looking through a spec sheet. The graphic below might offer you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm JZ200 and Fujifilm S2 Pro.

As you can see, both cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm JZ200 with its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF harder and the Fujifilm JZ200 will provide you with greater detail using its extra 10MP. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop images a bit more aggressively. The more modern Fujifilm JZ200 should have a benefit with regard to sensor tech.
