Samsung DV150F vs Sigma SD10 Sensor Comparison

Often, it is hard to picture the contrast between sensor measurements purely by reviewing technical specs. The graphic underneath may offer you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the DV150F and SD10.

As you have seen, both of the cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The DV150F using its tinier sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field more challenging and the Samsung DV150F will offer you extra detail because of its extra 13MP. Higher resolution will also let you crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The newer DV150F should have a benefit in sensor technology.
