Kodak M380 vs Samsung TL210 Sensor Comparison

Oftentimes, it can be tough to visualise the difference between sensor sizing only by checking a spec sheet. The visual here may offer you a stronger sense of the sensor sizes in the M380 and TL210.

As you can see, both of these cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same MP. You can expect the Samsung TL210 to give greater detail because of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also let you crop shots much more aggressively. The older M380 is going to be behind when it comes to sensor technology.
