Samsung WB750 vs Sony A7S II Sensor Comparison

Sometimes, it is very difficult to visualize the gap between sensor sizes simply by looking at specifications. The pic below may provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the WB750 and A7S II.

To sum up, the two cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The WB750 using its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field more challenging and the Samsung WB750 will resolve more detail because of its extra 1MP. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop images a good deal more aggressively. The more aged WB750 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
