As you can see, each of the cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit different MP. You can expect the Samsung CL80 to offer more detail having an extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will enable you to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The more aged FE-3010 is going to be behind in sensor innovation.
