FujiFilm S200EXR vs Sigma DP2 Sensor Comparison

Usually, it can be tough to visualize the gap between sensor measurements merely by reading a spec sheet. The photograph here may give you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the S200EXR and DP2.

Clearly, both of the cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The S200EXR because of its tinier sensor is going to make getting shallower DOF more challenging and the FujiFilm S200EXR will offer greater detail due to its extra 7MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop photographs a bit more aggressively.
