The S2950 was announced 12 months prior to the Fujifilm SL300 which means that they are both of a similar age. Both of these cameras have the same body design (SLR-like (bridge)).

Before delving into a more detailed comparison, here is a concise summary of how the S2950 matches up against the Fujifilm SL300 when considering portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Don't forget, the weight of an ILC will vary based on the lens you select at the time. Here is a front view dimension comparison of the S2950 against the Fujifilm SL300.

Taking into account dimensions and weight, the portability score of the S2950 and Fujifilm SL300 is 76 and 67 respectively.

More often than not, it is very tough to visualise the gap in sensor measurements only by researching a spec sheet. The visual here might give you a greater sense of the sensor dimensions in the S2950 and Fujifilm SL300.

As you can see, each of the cameras provide the same sensor dimensions and the same megapixels therefore you can expect comparable quality of files but you have to factor the age of the cameras into account. The older S2950 will be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
