Olympus TG-810 vs Olympus TG-6 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Typically, it can be tough to picture the contrast in sensor dimensions merely by going through specifications. The pic below might provide you a greater sense of the sensor dimensions in the TG-810 and TG-6.
To sum up, the 2 cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing but different resolution. You can anticipate the Olympus TG-810 to provide greater detail as a result of its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will allow you to crop pics a little more aggressively. The more aged TG-810 will be behind in sensor technology.
