Canon SX20 IS vs Samsung WB2200F Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Quite often, its tough to see the difference in sensor dimensions just by viewing specifications. The image here should give you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the SX20 IS and WB2200F.
Plainly, both the cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same megapixels. You can expect the Samsung WB2200F to provide you with extra detail having its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also let you crop shots much more aggressively. The more aged SX20 IS will be behind with regard to sensor tech.
