Fujifilm XP50 vs Nikon L28 Sensor Comparison

Typically, it is tough to envision the gap in sensor dimensions purely by looking through specs. The image underneath should give you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm XP50 and L28.

As you can plainly see, the 2 cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Nikon L28 to render more detail because of its extra 6MP. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop pics much more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm XP50 will be behind when it comes to sensor tech.
