Fujifilm Z37 vs Nikon P7800 Sensor Comparison

Often, it can be hard to picture the gap between sensor dimensions only by reviewing specs. The picture underneath might give you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm Z37 and P7800.

As you can plainly see, the 2 cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The Fujifilm Z37 using its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field more difficult and the Nikon P7800 will deliver more detail because of its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm Z37 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
