Canon D30 vs Kodak M580 Sensor Comparison

In many cases, its tough to see the gap between sensor dimensions only by reading through specs. The image below will help provide you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the D30 and M580.

All in all, both cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same resolution. You should expect the Kodak M580 to resolve extra detail as a result of its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also let you crop pictures far more aggressively. The newer D30 will have an advantage when it comes to sensor innovation.
