As you can see, each of the cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same MP. You should count on the Nikon S9900 to give greater detail due to its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop photographs much more aggressively. The more aged JZ500 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
