Olympus TG-310 vs Ricoh PX Sensor Comparison

In many cases, it is very tough to see the difference between sensor dimensions only by reviewing specs. The pic underneath should provide you a more clear sense of the sensor sizes in the TG-310 and PX.

All in all, both the cameras provide the same sensor dimensions but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Ricoh PX to offer you extra detail utilizing its extra 2MP. Greater resolution will enable you to crop photos more aggressively. The more aged TG-310 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
