Samsung WB35F vs Sigma DP1 Sensor Comparison

All in all, each of the cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The WB35F using its tinier sensor is going to make getting bokeh more difficult and the Samsung WB35F will offer you more detail because of its extra 11MP. Greater resolution can also let you crop images somewhat more aggressively. The younger WB35F should have an advantage when it comes to sensor innovation.
