Panasonic S1 vs Panasonic ZS35 Sensor Comparison

Typically, it is very tough to visualize the difference between sensor measurements simply by reading through specifications. The visual here may give you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the S1 and ZS35.

Plainly, both of these cameras feature the identical sensor size albeit different resolution. You should count on the Panasonic ZS35 to resolve extra detail using its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop pictures way more aggressively. The older S1 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
