FujiFilm S2800HD vs Sigma fp L

Here is a extensive review of the FujiFilm S2800HD versus Sigma fp L, one being a Small Sensor Superzoom and the latter is a Advanced Mirrorless by rivals FujiFilm and Sigma. There exists a crucial gap among the image resolutions of the S2800HD (14MP) and fp L (61MP) and the S2800HD (1/2.3") and fp L (Full frame) provide different sensor dimensions.

The S2800HD was released 12 years before the fp L and that is a fairly serious gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Both the cameras feature different body design with the FujiFilm S2800HD being a SLR-like (bridge) camera and the Sigma fp L being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera.

Before going right into a more detailed comparison, here is a brief synopsis of how the S2800HD matches up against the fp L with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Bear in mind, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary depending on the lens you choose during that time. Following is a front view dimension comparison of the S2800HD versus the fp L.

Using dimensions and weight, the portability score of the S2800HD and fp L is 75 and 83 respectively.

Normally, it is very difficult to visualize the contrast in sensor sizing only by looking through technical specs. The visual underneath will provide you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the S2800HD and fp L.

As you can tell, the 2 cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The S2800HD due to its smaller sensor is going to make getting shallower DOF harder and the Sigma fp L will result in extra detail as a result of its extra 47 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also let you crop shots way more aggressively. The older S2800HD will be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
