Plainly, both of the cameras come with the identical sensor size but not the same MP. You should anticipate the Nikon S80 to provide you with greater detail using its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The more aged EX-G1 will be behind with regard to sensor tech.
