Kodak Mini vs Sony W810 Sensor Comparison

Oftentimes, it is difficult to visualize the difference between sensor sizes purely by reading technical specs. The pic underneath might offer you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the Mini and W810.

As you have seen, the 2 cameras have got different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The Mini because of its tinier sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF tougher and the Sony W810 will deliver greater detail as a result of its extra 10 Megapixels. Higher resolution will enable you to crop shots much more aggressively. The more aged Mini is going to be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
