Olympus TG-320 vs Olympus TG-4 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Often, it can be difficult to visualize the contrast between sensor sizing purely by going over specifications. The visual underneath may offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the TG-320 and TG-4.
Plainly, both cameras feature the identical sensor size but different megapixels. You should expect to see the Olympus TG-4 to offer you greater detail having an extra 2MP. Greater resolution will let you crop pics way more aggressively. The older TG-320 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
