Kodak Mini vs Sony T99 Sensor Comparison

Sometimes, it can be difficult to picture the contrast in sensor measurements purely by checking out a spec sheet. The visual here might provide you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the Mini and T99.

Clearly, the two cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The Mini because of its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF tougher and the Sony T99 will show more detail having its extra 4MP. Greater resolution can also let you crop pics a good deal more aggressively.
