Kodak Z915 has a
10.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized CCD sensor . On the other hand, FujiFilm S200EXR has a
12.0MP 1/1.6-inch (8 x 6 mm ) sized CCD sensor and features EXR processor.
Below you can see the Z915 and S200EXR sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Kodak Z915 and FujiFilm S200EXR Cameras
As seen above, FujiFilm S200EXR has a 1.7x Larger sensor area than Kodak Z915. Larger sensors give photographer more control on the depth of field and blurry background compared to smaller sensor when shot in 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
Kodak Z915
or the
FujiFilm S200EXR ,
including hyperfocal distance.
One thing to watch when comparing these two: they have different sensor sizes
(1/2.3-inch versus 1/1.6-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.
