Fujifilm Z37 vs Sony W800 Sensor Comparison

In many cases, it is very hard to envision the difference between sensor sizes simply by reading a spec sheet. The pic underneath will help offer you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm Z37 and W800.

As you can see, both of the cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same MP. You can anticipate the Sony W800 to offer extra detail because of its extra 10MP.
