Fujifilm S4200 vs Panasonic ZS60 Sensor Comparison
Generally, its tough to see the gap in sensor sizes only by going through a spec sheet. The pic underneath may offer you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm S4200 and ZS60.
Clearly, both of those cameras provide the same sensor dimensions but not the same megapixels. You should expect to see the Panasonic ZS60 to provide extra detail due to its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop pics more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm S4200 will be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
