Olympus SP-600 UZ vs Olympus TG-320 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Generally, its difficult to imagine the contrast in sensor dimensions purely by viewing specs. The pic below will offer you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the SP-600 UZ and TG-320.
As you can plainly see, the two cameras have the same sensor dimensions albeit different megapixels. You should expect the Olympus TG-320 to result in extra detail because of its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also help you crop pictures a bit more aggressively. The more aged SP-600 UZ will be behind when it comes to sensor technology.
