Canon G12 vs Kodak C140 Sensor Comparison

Oftentimes, it is very hard to envision the difference between sensor sizing just by looking at specs. The photograph here should give you a clearer sense of the sensor dimensions in the G12 and C140.

As you can plainly see, both of those cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The G12 with its bigger sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field easier and the Canon G12 will resolve more detail because of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also let you crop photographs somewhat more aggressively. The more recent G12 will have a benefit with regard to sensor technology.
