Nikon S9100 vs Samsung WB2200F Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Generally, it is very hard to picture the gap in sensor dimensions purely by seeing a spec sheet. The image underneath should provide you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the S9100 and WB2200F.
Clearly, the 2 cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit different resolution. You can expect the Samsung WB2200F to produce more detail having an extra 4MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The more aged S9100 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
