Kodak Z915 vs Nikon S6200 Sensor Comparison

Usually, it is difficult to visualise the contrast between sensor measurements merely by reading through specifications. The visual here should provide you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the Z915 and S6200.

To sum up, both the cameras come with the identical sensor size but not the same megapixels. You can expect to see the Nikon S6200 to give more detail because of its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution will help you crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The older Z915 is going to be behind in sensor innovation.
