Canon N100 vs Kodak M580 Sensor Comparison

Sometimes, its tough to visualise the contrast between sensor sizes purely by going over technical specs. The picture below may give you a stronger sense of the sensor sizes in the N100 and M580.

As you can tell, the 2 cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The N100 using its bigger sensor will make getting bokeh easier and the Kodak M580 will offer greater detail with its extra 2MP.
