Olympus 6000 vs Olympus VR-320

The following is a extended assessment of the Olympus 6000 and Olympus VR-320, one is a Small Sensor Compact and the latter is a Small Sensor Superzoom and they are both offered by Olympus. There is a crucial difference among the sensor resolutions of the 6000 (10MP) and VR-320 (14MP) but both cameras have the identical sensor dimensions (1/2.3").

The 6000 was brought out 24 months before the VR-320 which makes them a generation away from each other. Each of these cameras feature the same body design (Compact).

Before we go straight to a full comparison, here is a brief highlight of how the 6000 matches up against the VR-320 with regard to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

For those who are planning to travel with your camera often, you're going to have to factor its weight and size.

Usually, it's hard to see the difference in sensor dimensions merely by checking out specifications. The picture below might provide you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the 6000 and VR-320.

Plainly, each of the cameras feature the identical sensor size albeit not the same megapixels. You should count on the Olympus VR-320 to produce more detail having its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop shots way more aggressively. The more aged 6000 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
