Casio EX-S5 vs Samsung ST150F Sensor Comparison

Typically, it is very tough to envision the difference in sensor dimensions purely by seeing a spec sheet. The image underneath should give you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the EX-S5 and ST150F.

Clearly, both of these cameras come with the identical sensor size but not the same MP. You can expect to see the Samsung ST150F to produce greater detail having an extra 7MP. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop images a good deal more aggressively. The more aged EX-S5 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
