Plainly, the two cameras come with the identical sensor size but not the same megapixels. You can anticipate the Samsung DV300F to result in extra detail using its extra 2MP. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The more aged TS10 will be behind with regard to sensor tech.
