Fujifilm SL300 vs Nikon P1000 Sensor Comparison

Oftentimes, it's difficult to envision the contrast between sensor dimensions only by reading through specs. The image below will help give you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm SL300 and P1000.

As you can plainly see, both of these cameras have the same sensor dimensions but not the same megapixels. You can expect to see the Nikon P1000 to give greater detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Greater resolution will let you crop pics a bit more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm SL300 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
