Re: thoughts on wb750

Sensor is very important, but we are speaking about compact cameras, so sensor size has important implications in size and price of lens and then on weight and size of cameras.

BTW, brands have noticed the limits of 1/2.3 sensors: with 14mp and above IQ decreases too much. Samsung has reduced the resolution from 14mp in wb700 to 12.5 in wb750.

But not only size, also have different types: wb750 comes with CMOS instead of CCD, and also adds BSI to it.
So there are reasons to expect for IQ of this camera.

I repeat, speaking about compact cameras and a zoom greater than 5x. I only know an alternative: Nikon P7100, with only 7x zoom, greater sensor but doubled size, doubled weight and doubled price of the camera.
