Olympus TG-810 vs Panasonic FP7 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Often, it can be difficult to visualise the difference between sensor dimensions only by reading specs. The pic here should offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the TG-810 and FP7.
As you can plainly see, each of these cameras provide the same sensor dimensions but not the same MP. You should expect to see the Panasonic FP7 to offer extra detail because of its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also let you crop photos more aggressively. The fresher TG-810 will have an edge with regard to sensor tech.
