Casio EX-ZR400 has a
16.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized BSI-CMOS sensor and features Exilim Engine HS processor. On the other hand, FujiFilm F300EXR has a
12.0MP 1/2-inch (6.4 x 4.8 mm ) sized CCD sensor and features EXR processor.
Below you can see the EX-ZR400 and F300EXR sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Casio EX-ZR400 and FujiFilm F300EXR Cameras
Casio EX-ZR400 and FujiFilm F300EXR have almost the same sensor size, so neither of them has any significant advantage over the other in terms of providing control over depth of field when used with the same focal length and aperture.
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
Casio EX-ZR400
or the
FujiFilm F300EXR ,
including hyperfocal distance.
One thing to watch when comparing these two: they have different sensor sizes
(1/2.3-inch versus 1/2-inch),
so compare them at the same framing rather than the same focal length.
Put the same focal length on the smaller sensor and it will show less depth of
field, not more, because it also crops tighter. The calculator shows the
full frame equivalent focal length for each body so you can match the framing.
