Canon SX210 IS vs Nikon P7000 Sensor Comparison

          

          

            
Sometimes, it is very hard to see the gap between sensor measurements just by reading through specs. The visual here may offer you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the SX210 IS and P7000.
All in all, each of these cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The SX210 IS featuring a tinier sensor will make getting shallow depth of field tougher and the Canon SX210 IS will resolve extra detail utilizing its extra 4MP. Higher resolution can also let you crop shots more aggressively.
