Nikon A900 vs Samsung WB2200F Sensor Comparison

          

          

            
Typically, it is very tough to visualise the gap in sensor dimensions only by checking out specifications. The picture underneath should provide you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the A900 and WB2200F.
To sum up, the 2 cameras provide the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same resolution. You should expect the Nikon A900 to show greater detail using its extra 4MP. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop pictures more aggressively. The more recent A900 is going to have an edge when it comes to sensor tech.
