FujiFilm AV250 has a
16.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized CCD sensor . On the other hand, Fujifilm JZ100 has a
14.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized CCD sensor .
Below you can see the AV250 and JZ100 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of FujiFilm AV250 and Fujifilm JZ100 Cameras
FujiFilm AV250 and Fujifilm JZ100 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 Fujifilm JZ100 has 15% larger pixel area (2.04µm 2 vs 1.77µm 2 ) compared to FujiFilm AV250, 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
FujiFilm AV250
or the
Fujifilm JZ100 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
