As you can plainly see, both of the cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The ST30 due to its tinier sensor will make shooting shallower DOF more difficult and the Samsung WB750 will give greater detail having its extra 3MP. Greater resolution will enable you to crop photos somewhat more aggressively. The more aged ST30 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
