Fujifilm XP150 vs Nikon AW130 Sensor Comparison

Oftentimes, it is tough to visualise the difference between sensor measurements merely by reading a spec sheet. The photograph below should provide you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm XP150 and AW130.

Clearly, both cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same resolution. You should anticipate the Nikon AW130 to offer you more detail as a result of its extra 2MP.
