Nikon L24 vs Samsung TL500 Sensor Comparison

Generally, it can be hard to visualise the gap in sensor sizing merely by researching specs. The photograph underneath should give you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the L24 and TL500.

As you can plainly see, both of those cameras have different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The L24 featuring a smaller sensor will make achieving shallower DOF more challenging and the Nikon L24 will provide you with extra detail as a result of its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop images a bit more aggressively. The more recent L24 is going to have an edge in sensor tech.
