Kodak M341 vs Olympus VG-120 Sensor Comparison

Quite often, it is very hard to envision the difference between sensor sizes merely by reading specifications. The picture here will help give you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the M341 and VG-120.

To sum up, both of the cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same MP. You can anticipate the Olympus VG-120 to offer extra detail with its extra 2MP. Greater resolution can also help you crop pics much more aggressively. The more aged M341 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
