Fujifilm XQ1 vs Olympus FE-25 Sensor Comparison
Often, its tough to visualize the gap in sensor dimensions purely by going through technical specs. The pic below will offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm XQ1 and FE-25.
As you can tell, both of those cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The Fujifilm XQ1 with its larger sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field less difficult and the Fujifilm XQ1 will produce greater detail with its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop images a bit more aggressively. The more recent Fujifilm XQ1 provides a benefit when it comes to sensor innovation.
