Fujifilm XP90 vs Sony HX50V Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
More often than not, it is very tough to visualise the difference in sensor sizes merely by looking through specifications. The picture below may provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm XP90 and HX50V.
To sum up, each of these cameras have the same sensor dimensions but not the same MP. You should expect to see the Sony HX50V to render greater detail as a result of its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop images a bit more aggressively. The younger Fujifilm XP90 is going to have an advantage when it comes to sensor innovation.
