Fujifilm S1 vs Fujifilm SL240 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Oftentimes, its hard to visualise the difference between sensor sizing just by checking a spec sheet. The photograph below should offer you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm S1 and Fujifilm SL240.
As you can see, both the cameras come with the identical sensor size but not the same resolution. You can expect to see the Fujifilm S1 to give extra detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The more modern Fujifilm S1 will have a benefit when it comes to sensor tech.
