Canon G11 vs Samsung ST150F Sensor Comparison

Typically, it is very hard to visualise the gap in sensor sizing just by researching a spec sheet. The visual underneath might provide you a greater sense of the sensor dimensions in the G11 and ST150F.

Clearly, both the cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The G11 due to its bigger sensor will make getting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Samsung ST150F will render more detail as a result of its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also let you crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The older G11 will be behind with regard to sensor technology.
