Fujifilm S4200 vs Fujifilm X-S10 Sensor Comparison
Normally, it is tough to visualise the contrast between sensor sizes merely by reading through a spec sheet. The image here might offer you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm S4200 and Fujifilm X-S10.
Clearly, both of the cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The Fujifilm S4200 featuring a tinier sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field harder and the Fujifilm X-S10 will give you extra detail due to its extra 12MP. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop photographs way more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm S4200 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
