Kodak Sport vs Ricoh PX Sensor Comparison

Typically, its hard to envision the gap between sensor sizing just by looking at specifications. The photograph underneath might provide you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the Sport and PX.

To sum up, the two cameras provide the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same resolution. You should expect the Ricoh PX to give greater detail using its extra 4MP. Higher resolution can also help you crop shots more aggressively. The older Sport is going to be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
