Plainly, both of the cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The EX-Z29 with its tinier sensor will make shooting shallow depth of field more difficult and the Nikon S7000 will give more detail using its extra 6MP. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The older EX-Z29 is going to be behind in sensor technology.
