Kodak M380 vs Sony W380 Sensor Comparison
Normally, it is very difficult to imagine the gap between sensor measurements only by checking a spec sheet. The graphic below will offer you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the M380 and W380.
As you can see, each of these cameras come with the identical sensor size but different megapixels. You should anticipate the Sony W380 to give you extra detail because of its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop images a good deal more aggressively. The older M380 is going to be behind in sensor tech.
