Samsung WB800F vs Sigma SD10 Sensor Comparison

Often, it is very hard to picture the contrast between sensor sizing purely by reading through a spec sheet. The photograph underneath will offer you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the WB800F and SD10.

Clearly, both of these cameras enjoy different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The WB800F having a tinier sensor is going to make getting bokeh trickier and the Samsung WB800F will give you greater detail because of its extra 13MP. Higher resolution will also help you crop photographs far more aggressively. The fresher WB800F should have a benefit in sensor technology.
