FujiFilm JZ300 vs Samsung WB1100F Sensor Comparison

Oftentimes, its difficult to visualise the difference between sensor measurements purely by looking at technical specs. The photograph below should offer you a stronger sense of the sensor sizes in the JZ300 and WB1100F.

As you have seen, both of the cameras have the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same resolution. You should expect the Samsung WB1100F to resolve more detail because of its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop shots a bit more aggressively. The older JZ300 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
