Kodak C140 vs Olympus E-400 Sensor Comparison

Normally, it is very hard to imagine the gap between sensor dimensions merely by checking specifications. The pic underneath should offer you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the C140 and E-400.

Plainly, each of the cameras have got different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The C140 with its tinier sensor is going to make getting bokeh more difficult and the Olympus E-400 will resolve greater detail with its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also let you crop pictures much more aggressively. The newer C140 should have an advantage when it comes to sensor tech.
