The C140 was unveiled 7 years before the S33 which is a fairly serious difference as far as camera technology is concerned. Each of these cameras feature the same body design (Compact).

Before getting straight to a thorough comparison, here is a concise summary of how the C140 grades against the S33 with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

The following is a preview of the gallery photos for Kodak EasyShare C140 & Nikon Coolpix S33. The full galleries are viewable at Kodak C140 Gallery & Nikon S33 Gallery.

For anybody who is looking to carry around your camera regularly, you have to factor in its weight and measurements.

Keep in mind, the weight of an ILC will differ dependant on the lens you use during that time. Here is a front view dimensions comparison of the C140 versus the S33.

Using dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the C140 and S33 is 94 and 91 respectively.

Normally, it is very tough to imagine the contrast in sensor sizes simply by viewing technical specs. The picture here might offer you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the C140 and S33.

As you have seen, both of those cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The C140 using its bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallow DOF less difficult and the Nikon S33 will render greater detail having an extra 5 Megapixels. Higher resolution will help you crop shots a good deal more aggressively. The more aged C140 will be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
