Canon T6s vs Nikon P100

Lets take a more detailed look at the Canon T6s versus Nikon P100, one being a Entry-Level DSLR and the latter is a Small Sensor Superzoom by competitors Canon and Nikon. There exists a sizeable gap between the resolutions of the T6s (24MP) and P100 (10MP) and the T6s (APS-C) and P100 (1/2.3") use different sensor measurements.

The T6s was announced 4 years later than the P100 and that is quite a large gap as far as technology is concerned. Each of these cameras come with different body type with the Canon T6s being a Compact SLR camera and the Nikon P100 being a SLR-like (bridge) camera.

Before getting straight into a in depth comparison, below is a brief introduction of how the T6s scores versus the P100 with regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Below is a preview of the gallery photos for Canon EOS Rebel T6s and Nikon Coolpix P100. The whole galleries are available at Canon T6s Gallery and Nikon P100 Gallery.

When you are planning to carry your camera regularly, you have to consider its weight and volume.

Always remember, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary dependant on the lens you are using during that time. Underneath is the front view sizing comparison of the T6s and the P100.

Factoring in dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the T6s and P100 is 66 and 68 respectively.

More often than not, it's difficult to imagine the gap between sensor sizing only by looking at specifications. The visual here should give you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the T6s and P100.

Plainly, both cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The T6s having a bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallow DOF easier and the Canon T6s will give greater detail with its extra 14MP. Higher resolution will let you crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The more modern T6s should have an edge in sensor technology.
