Fujifilm S1500 vs Samsung ST150F Sensor Comparison

More often than not, it is very hard to envision the gap in sensor sizing purely by viewing technical specs. The graphic here might provide you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm S1500 and ST150F.

As you can tell, both the cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing but not the same resolution. You can anticipate the Samsung ST150F to result in more detail with its extra 6MP. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop pics far more aggressively. The older Fujifilm S1500 will be behind in sensor innovation.
