Leica V-Lux 20 vs Samsung WB1100F Sensor Comparison
Oftentimes, it is very tough to see the gap in sensor measurements merely by looking through a spec sheet. The photograph here might provide you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the V-Lux 20 and WB1100F.
Clearly, both of these cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You can expect to see the Samsung WB1100F to provide you with greater detail having its extra 4MP. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop photos somewhat more aggressively. The older V-Lux 20 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
