FujiFilm T300 vs Sigma DP2 Quattro Sensor Comparison

Normally, it is tough to envision the contrast between sensor sizing only by reading through specs. The photograph here will offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the T300 and DP2 Quattro.

All in all, both of the cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The T300 using its tinier sensor will make achieving shallow depth of field more challenging and the Sigma DP2 Quattro will resolve more detail using its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also let you crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The older T300 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
