Canon SX410 IS vs Samsung EX2F Sensor Comparison

Generally, its hard to picture the gap in sensor measurements only by viewing specifications. The photograph here should provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the SX410 IS and EX2F.

Plainly, both of the cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The SX410 IS having a smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field harder and the Canon SX410 IS will render extra detail using its extra 8 Megapixels. Higher resolution will help you crop photographs more aggressively. The newer SX410 IS should have an edge when it comes to sensor innovation.
