Kodak Touch vs Nikon L32 Sensor Comparison

Normally, its hard to visualise the gap in sensor sizes just by researching technical specs. The image underneath will give you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the Touch and L32.

As you can tell, both of the cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The Touch due to its smaller sensor will make shooting shallow depth of field trickier and the Nikon L32 will provide you with more detail utilizing its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop images a good deal more aggressively. The more aged Touch will be behind when it comes to sensor technology.
