FujiFilm S1800 vs Sigma Quattro Sensor Comparison

More often than not, it is very tough to imagine the gap in sensor sizing only by seeing specifications. The visual underneath might provide you a better sense of the sensor sizing in the S1800 and Quattro.

Plainly, both cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The S1800 because of its smaller sensor is going to make shooting bokeh more challenging and the Sigma Quattro will show more detail utilizing its extra 17 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also let you crop pictures way more aggressively. The older S1800 will be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
