Samsung CL80 has a
14.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized CCD sensor . On the other hand, Fujifilm S1500 has a
10.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized CCD sensor .
Below you can see the CL80 and S1500 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Samsung CL80 and Fujifilm S1500 Cameras
Samsung CL80 and Fujifilm S1500 have the same sensor sizes so they will provide same level of control over the depth of field when used with same focal length and aperture. On the other hand, since Fujifilm S1500 has 41% larger pixel area (2.81µm 2 vs 1.99µm 2 ) compared to Samsung CL80, it has larger pixel area to collect light hence potential to have less noise in low light / High ISO images.
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
Samsung CL80
or the
Fujifilm S1500 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
