Samsung WB750 vs Sony W730 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Oftentimes, it is tough to imagine the gap between sensor dimensions simply by reviewing technical specs. The image here will help provide you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the WB750 and W730.
As you can tell, the two cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing but different megapixels. You should anticipate the Sony W730 to deliver greater detail having an extra 3MP. Greater resolution will also help you crop photos far more aggressively. The more aged WB750 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
