Samsung SL30 has a
10.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.08 x 4.56 mm ) sized CCD sensor . On the other hand, Samsung ST600 has a
14.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.08 x 4.56 mm ) sized CCD sensor .
Below you can see the SL30 and ST600 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Samsung SL30 and Samsung ST600 Cameras
Samsung SL30 and Samsung ST600 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 Samsung SL30 has 40% larger pixel area compared to Samsung ST600, it has potential to collect more light on pixel level hence 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 SL30
or the
Samsung ST600 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
