In many cases, it is very hard to see the contrast between sensor measurements purely by reading through specs. The graphic underneath will help provide you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the CL80 and WB50F.

As you can plainly see, both of those cameras provide the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same resolution. You should count on the Samsung WB50F to resolve extra detail using its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will help you crop pictures more aggressively. The older CL80 is going to be behind when it comes to sensor tech.
