More often than not, its difficult to picture the difference between sensor sizing just by checking a spec sheet. The visual here will offer you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm Real 3D W1 and Fujifilm S8300.

Clearly, the two cameras have the same sensor dimensions but different MP. You can anticipate the Fujifilm S8300 to resolve extra detail with its extra 6MP. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop photos a bit more aggressively. The older Fujifilm Real 3D W1 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
