Panasonic ZS60 vs Ricoh WG-80 Sensor Comparison
Typically, it can be tough to visualise the contrast between sensor measurements just by going over a spec sheet. The photograph underneath will provide you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the ZS60 and WG-80.
As you can see, the 2 cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same MP. You can anticipate the Panasonic ZS60 to offer more detail because of its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The older ZS60 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
