Kodak M320 vs Sony TX5 Sensor Comparison

Normally, it can be difficult to see the difference between sensor sizing just by checking technical specs. The graphic underneath will help offer you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the M320 and TX5.

As you have seen, both of the cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The M320 because of its tinier sensor will make getting shallower DOF harder and the Sony TX5 will resolve greater detail due to its extra 1 Megapixels. Greater resolution will help you crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The older M320 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
