Fujifilm XP50 vs Nikon S8200 Sensor Comparison

          

          

            
Oftentimes, its tough to envision the gap in sensor sizes only by researching technical specs. The picture here will help give you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm XP50 and S8200.
As you can tell, the 2 cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing but not the same resolution. You can anticipate the Nikon S8200 to result in extra detail as a result of its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also help you crop images a little more aggressively.
