The G12 was launched 23 months earlier than the ST150F making the cameras a generation away from one another. Both cameras offer the identical body type (Compact).

Before we go straight into a complete comparison, below is a brief introduction of how the G12 grades vs the ST150F when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

Below is a sample of the gallery pics for Canon PowerShot G12 and Samsung ST150F. The complete galleries are viewable at Canon G12 Gallery and Samsung ST150F Gallery.

If you're going to carry around your camera, you will want to consider its weight and volume.

More often than not, it is very tough to visualise the gap in sensor sizes only by looking through a spec sheet. The pic below might provide you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the G12 and ST150F.

Clearly, both the cameras offer different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The G12 because of its larger sensor will make achieving shallow depth of field less difficult and the Samsung ST150F will provide you with greater detail utilizing its extra 6MP. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop photos a little more aggressively. The more aged G12 will be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
