Sony H50 has a
9.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized CCD sensor . On the other hand, Nikon S1000pj has a
12.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized CCD sensor and features Expeed processor.
Below you can see the H50 and S1000pj sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Sony H50 and Nikon S1000pj Cameras
Sony H50 and Nikon S1000pj 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 Sony H50 has 33% larger pixel area compared to Nikon S1000pj, 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
Sony H50
or the
Nikon S1000pj ,
including hyperfocal distance.
