Kodak C140 vs Olympus TG-320 Sensor Comparison

Oftentimes, it's hard to imagine the contrast in sensor measurements purely by looking through a spec sheet. The graphic underneath should offer you a greater sense of the sensor dimensions in the C140 and TG-320.

Clearly, each of these cameras offer different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The C140 having a smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallow DOF tougher and the Olympus TG-320 will provide you with more detail using its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also help you crop images a little more aggressively. The older C140 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
