Below you can see the E90 and ST100 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Pentax E90 and Samsung ST100 Cameras
Pentax E90 and Samsung ST100 have almost the same sensor size, so neither of them has any significant advantage over the other in terms of providing control over depth of field when used with the same focal length and aperture.
Sensor size sets the circle of confusion, so it drives how much depth of field each
of these bodies gives you at a given aperture. You can calculate it exactly for the
Pentax E90
or the
Samsung ST100 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
