Fujifilm S9900w has a 16.0MP (1/2. ) sized CMOS sensor . On the other hand, Ricoh GR Digital III has a 10.0MP 1/1.7-inch (7.44 x 5.58 mm ) sized CCD sensor and features GR engine III processor.
Fujifilm S9900w's sensor provides 6MP more than Ricoh GR Digital III's sensor, which gives a significant advantage in real life. You can print your images larger or crop more freely.
On the other hand, please keep in mind that Max sensor resolution is not the only determinant of resolving power. Factors such as the optical elements, low pass filter, pixel size and sensor technology also affects the final resolution of the captured image.
Below you can see the S9900w and GR Digital III sensor size comparison.
