Casio EX-10 vs Nikon L100

Let's take a more detailed look at the Casio EX-10 versus Nikon L100, one is a Small Sensor Compact and the other is a Small Sensor Superzoom by manufacturers Casio and Nikon. The sensor resolution of the EX-10 (12MP) and the L100 (10MP) is fairly well matched but the EX-10 (1/1.7") and L100 (1/2.3") possess totally different sensor sizes.

The EX-10 was introduced 4 years after the L100 which is quite a big gap as far as tech is concerned. Both of these cameras come with the identical body type (Compact).

Before going through a comprehensive comparison, below is a concise view of how the EX-10 grades against the L100 when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

The following is a sample of the gallery pictures for Casio Exilim EX-10 and Nikon Coolpix L100. The whole galleries are viewable at Casio EX-10 Gallery and Nikon L100 Gallery.

When you are aiming to travel with your camera frequently, you will need to consider its weight and dimensions.

Oftentimes, it can be hard to visualise the contrast between sensor dimensions just by reading through specs. The pic here will give you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the EX-10 and L100.

All in all, both of the cameras have got different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The EX-10 using its larger sensor will make achieving shallower DOF simpler and the Casio EX-10 will resolve more detail using its extra 2MP. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop photos much more aggressively. The more recent EX-10 will have an advantage in sensor innovation.
