      Sensor

      Fujifilm X-M1 features a 16.3 megapixel APS-C CMOS X-TRANS I sensor with dimensions of 23.6 x 15.6 mm and a total area of 368.2 mm2. Its native ISO range is 200 - 6,400. Casio TRYX Exilim EX-TR100 features a 12.1 megapixel 1/2.3-inch BSI-CMOS sensor with dimensions of 6.17 x 4.55 mm and a total area of 20.7 mm2. Its native ISO range is 100 - 3,200.

      Fujifilm X-M1 has CMOS X-TRANS I sensor

      Casio TRYX Exilim EX-TR100 has BSI-CMOS sensor, short for Backside Illuminated Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor sensor. In traditional CMOS sensors, the wiring and circuitry are located on the front side of the sensor, which can block some of the incoming light. BSI technology flips this design by placing the photosensitive elements (pixels) on the backside of the sensor, allowing more light to reach the pixels. This significantly enhances light sensitivity and improves low-light performance. BSI-CMOS sensors are particularly effective in low-light conditions, as they can capture more light, resulting in brighter and less noisy images. This makes them well-suited for indoor and night photography. BSI-CMOS sensors deliver a higher SNR and reduced cross-talk.

      Photography Features

      Fujifilm X-M1 is equipped with EXR Processor II processor and can take pictures up to 4896 x 3264 resolution. It can also take pictures with lower resolution like S: (3:2) 2496 x 1664 / (16:9) 2496 x 1408 / (1:1) 1664 x 1664 with 1:1, 3:2, 16:9 aspect ratios. Casio TRYX Exilim EX-TR100 is equipped with Exilim Engine HS processor and can take pictures up to 4000 x 3000 resolution. It can also take pictures with lower resolution like 4000 x 2656, 2560 x 1920, 640 x 480 with 4:3, 3:2 aspect ratios.


      No Low-Pass Filter on Fujifilm X-M1

      There is no optical low-pass filter (OLPF), also known as an anti-aliasing filter, in front of the sensor on Fujifilm X-M1. This results in a slightly sharper image but may also introduce moiré patterns and aliasing artifacts when photographing subjects with fine, repetitive patterns or details.
