Oftentimes, it is difficult to visualise the gap in sensor measurements only by checking out specifications. The visual underneath should give you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the ST30 and WB2200F.

Plainly, both of these cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The ST30 using its smaller sensor will make achieving bokeh trickier and the Samsung WB2200F will show greater detail using its extra 6MP. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop images somewhat more aggressively. The older ST30 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
