Fujifilm Z35 vs Olympus VR-340

Below is a extended analysis of the Fujifilm Z35 versus Olympus VR-340, both Small Sensor Compact cameras by manufacturers FujiFilm and Olympus. There is a significant difference among the sensor resolutions of the Fujifilm Z35 (10MP) and VR-340 (16MP) but both cameras offer the same sensor sizing (1/2.3").

The Fujifilm Z35 was brought out 3 years prior to the VR-340 and that is a fairly sizable gap as far as camera tech is concerned. Both of the cameras have the same body design (Compact).

Before going into a detailed comparison, here is a quick summary of how the Fujifilm Z35 grades against the VR-340 when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

The following is a preview of the gallery images for Fujifilm FinePix Z35 and Olympus VR-340. The entire galleries are provided at Fujifilm Z35 Gallery and Olympus VR-340 Gallery.

If you are intending to lug around your camera, you will have to think about its weight and proportions. The Fujifilm Z35 comes with physical dimensions of 90mm x 58mm x 24mm (3.5" x 2.3" x 0.9") along with a weight of 125 grams (0.28 lbs) and the Olympus VR-340 has measurements of 96mm x 57mm x 19mm (3.8" x 2.2" x 0.7") with a weight of 125 grams (0.28 lbs).

Always remember, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary depending on the lens you are employing at that moment. Below is a front view measurements comparison of the Fujifilm Z35 vs the VR-340.

Taking into consideration size and weight, the portability grade of the Fujifilm Z35 and VR-340 is 95 and 96 respectively.

Generally, it is very hard to visualise the gap in sensor measurements purely by going through technical specs. The visual here may offer you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm Z35 and VR-340.

As you have seen, both the cameras provide the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same resolution. You should expect the Olympus VR-340 to produce extra detail having its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also help you crop photographs more aggressively. The older Fujifilm Z35 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
