Fujifilm Real 3D W1 vs Sony A3000 Sensor Comparison

In many cases, it's tough to picture the gap in sensor dimensions only by seeing specs. The picture below may give you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm Real 3D W1 and A3000.

As you can plainly see, both of the cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The Fujifilm Real 3D W1 using its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF more difficult and the Sony A3000 will show greater detail with its extra 10 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm Real 3D W1 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
