Casio EX-G1 vs Samsung SH100 Sensor Comparison
Typically, it is very difficult to envision the contrast between sensor dimensions just by reading through a spec sheet. The image below might give you a clearer sense of the sensor sizes in the EX-G1 and SH100.
Clearly, the two cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same megapixels. You can count on the Samsung SH100 to give greater detail with its extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop photographs a little more aggressively. The more aged EX-G1 is going to be behind when it comes to sensor technology.
