Clearly, each of these cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The WB800F having a tinier sensor is going to make getting bokeh more challenging and the Samsung WB800F will offer extra detail because of its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop images way more aggressively. The older WB800F is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
