Fujifilm Z300 vs Nikon S6400 Sensor Comparison

Typically, it is hard to envision the contrast between sensor measurements only by reviewing specs. The photograph below may give you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm Z300 and S6400.

As you can plainly see, each of these cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same resolution.
