Kodak Mini vs Nikon L32 Sensor Comparison

More often than not, its hard to envision the difference between sensor dimensions simply by looking at a spec sheet. The picture here will offer you a stronger sense of the sensor dimensions in the Mini and L32.

Clearly, both the cameras offer different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The Mini due to its tinier sensor will make getting shallower depth of field harder and the Nikon L32 will give extra detail due to its extra 10 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop pictures a little more aggressively. The more aged Mini is going to be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
