As you can tell, both of the cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The CL5 using its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF more challenging and the Samsung WB2200F will give you extra detail because of its extra 7 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The older CL5 is going to be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
