Usually, it can be hard to picture the gap in sensor sizing merely by viewing specifications. The graphic below will help provide you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the VG-110 and CL80.

Plainly, both the cameras come with the identical sensor size but different MP. You should anticipate the Samsung CL80 to provide you with more detail having an extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop images a good deal more aggressively. The younger VG-110 should have an edge when it comes to sensor technology.
