Nikon A10 vs Samsung ST600 Sensor Comparison

More often than not, it is very difficult to visualise the difference between sensor sizes merely by reading through specifications. The picture underneath will give you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the A10 and ST600.

Plainly, both of those cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same MP. You can anticipate the Nikon A10 to give you greater detail as a result of its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop images somewhat more aggressively. The younger A10 is going to have an edge when it comes to sensor tech.
