Olympus SP-610UZ vs Panasonic TS25 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Often, it's hard to see the gap in sensor measurements simply by viewing specs. The visual here might offer you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the SP-610UZ and TS25.
All in all, both the cameras provide the same sensor dimensions but not the same resolution. You should expect to see the Panasonic TS25 to result in greater detail using its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop images more aggressively. The older SP-610UZ will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
