The S2 was introduced 12 months prior to the ST150F so they are of a similar age. Both the cameras have the same body design (Compact).

Before diving into a full comparison, here is a brief summation of how the S2 scores vs the ST150F for portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

The following is a sample of the gallery pictures for Panasonic Lumix DMC-S2 & Samsung ST150F. The whole galleries are available at Panasonic S2 Gallery & Samsung ST150F Gallery.

If you are planning to travel with your camera often, you are going to need to think about its weight and dimensions.

Take into consideration, the weight of an ILC will differ based on the lens you select at that moment. The following is a front view over all size comparison of the S2 against the ST150F.

Generally, it's difficult to visualise the contrast in sensor dimensions purely by viewing a spec sheet. The pic here will provide you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the S2 and ST150F.

Clearly, the two cameras have the same sensor dimensions but not the same resolution. You can anticipate the Samsung ST150F to result in greater detail using its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop images a bit more aggressively. The more aged S2 will be behind when it comes to sensor technology.
