Samsung WB800F vs Sigma Quattro H Sensor Comparison

Sometimes, it can be difficult to envision the gap between sensor measurements just by reviewing a spec sheet. The photograph here may give you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the WB800F and Quattro H.

As you can see, both of the cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The WB800F using its tinier sensor will make achieving shallow depth of field trickier and the Sigma Quattro H will offer extra detail using its extra 29 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The older WB800F is going to be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
