Fujifilm XF1 vs Olympus FE-45

Let's look more closely at the Fujifilm XF1 versus Olympus FE-45, both Small Sensor Compact cameras by competitors FujiFilm and Olympus. The image resolution of the Fujifilm XF1 (12MP) and the FE-45 (10MP) is pretty comparable but the Fujifilm XF1 (2/3") and FE-45 (1/2.3") posses different sensor sizing.

The Fujifilm XF1 was manufactured 3 years later than the FE-45 and that is a fairly big gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Each of these cameras feature the same body design (Compact).

Before we go into a full comparison, here is a short overview of how the Fujifilm XF1 scores vs the FE-45 when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

This is a preview of the gallery images for Fujifilm XF1 and Olympus FE-45. The entire galleries are provided at Fujifilm XF1 Gallery and Olympus FE-45 Gallery.

When you are intending to lug around your camera, you're going to have to think about its weight and size. The Fujifilm XF1 has got outside measurements of 108mm x 62mm x 33mm (4.3" x 2.4" x 1.3") and a weight of 255 grams (0.56 lbs) while the Olympus FE-45 has specifications of 94mm x 62mm x 23mm (3.7" x 2.4" x 0.9") with a weight of 142 grams (0.31 lbs).

Taking into consideration dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the Fujifilm XF1 and FE-45 is 90 and 95 respectively.

Typically, it can be hard to visualize the gap in sensor measurements simply by checking out a spec sheet. The visual underneath might provide you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm XF1 and FE-45.

Clearly, both of those cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm XF1 because of its bigger sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field simpler and the Fujifilm XF1 will provide extra detail due to its extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also help you crop shots way more aggressively. The younger Fujifilm XF1 should have an advantage when it comes to sensor technology.
