In many cases, its hard to see the gap in sensor sizes simply by going through a spec sheet. The picture here might offer you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the S1800 and P950.

As you can see, both of the cameras come with the identical sensor size albeit not the same resolution. You can count on the Nikon P950 to produce more detail as a result of its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also let you crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The more aged S1800 will be behind with regard to sensor technology.
