Kodak S-1 vs Sigma Quattro Sensor Comparison

Generally, it's difficult to imagine the difference between sensor sizing purely by reviewing a spec sheet. The photograph underneath may give you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the S-1 and Quattro.

Clearly, both of those cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The S-1 due to its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field tougher and the Sigma Quattro will offer you greater detail due to its extra 13 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also help you crop pics far more aggressively. The older S-1 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
