Olympus SP-820UZ vs Samsung WB2200F Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Generally, it's hard to visualise the contrast in sensor sizing just by going through specifications. The photograph underneath will help give you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the SP-820UZ and WB2200F.
To sum up, the 2 cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same megapixels. You can expect the Samsung WB2200F to provide extra detail having an extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop shots much more aggressively. The older SP-820UZ will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
