Canon SX510 HS has a
12.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Digic 4 processor. On the other hand, Casio EX-FH25 has a
10.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized BSI-CMOS sensor .
Below you can see the SX510 HS and EX-FH25 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Canon SX510 HS and Casio EX-FH25 Cameras
Canon SX510 HS and Casio EX-FH25 have the same sensor sizes so they will provide same level of control over the depth of field when used with same focal length and aperture. On the other hand, since Casio EX-FH25 has 59% larger pixel area (2.81µm 2 vs 1.76µm 2 ) compared to Canon SX510 HS, it has larger pixel area to collect light hence potential to have less noise in low light / High ISO images.
Sensor size sets the circle of confusion, so it drives how much depth of field each
of these bodies gives you at a given aperture. You can calculate it exactly for the
Canon SX510 HS
or the
Casio EX-FH25 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
