Sony NEX-3 vs Sony T110 Sensor Comparison

Usually, its hard to visualise the difference between sensor sizing only by reading through specs. The photograph underneath may provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the NEX-3 and T110.

As you can plainly see, the 2 cameras have different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The NEX-3 with its bigger sensor will make achieving bokeh easier and the Sony T110 will resolve greater detail because of its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The older NEX-3 is going to be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
