The Fujifilm Z35 was released 4 years before the P330 and that is a fairly significant gap as far as camera tech is concerned. Both the cameras feature the same body design (Compact).

Before diving straight to a complete comparison, here is a simple overview of how the Fujifilm Z35 scores against the P330 in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Following is a preview of the gallery images for Fujifilm FinePix Z35 and Nikon Coolpix P330. The complete galleries are viewable at Fujifilm Z35 Gallery and Nikon P330 Gallery.

If you are aiming to lug around your camera, you will need to think about its weight and size.

Usually, it is tough to visualize the gap in sensor measurements only by seeing technical specs. The photograph below will offer you a stronger sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm Z35 and P330.

As you can tell, each of the cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm Z35 featuring a smaller sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field tougher and the Nikon P330 will produce more detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also help you crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The older Fujifilm Z35 will be behind in sensor technology.
