As you can tell, both of the cameras have different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The S200 featuring a bigger sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF less difficult and the Samsung TL320 will result in more detail due to its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The fresher S200 should have an advantage with regard to sensor innovation.
