Kodak Z950 vs Nikon P330

Lets look more closely at the Kodak Z950 versus Nikon P330, both Small Sensor Compact digital cameras by companies Kodak and Nikon. The image resolution of the Z950 (12MP) and the P330 (12MP) is fairly well matched but the Z950 (1/2.3") and P330 (1/1.7") provide different sensor measurements.

The Z950 was released 3 years earlier than the P330 and that is quite a large gap as far as tech is concerned. Each of these cameras have the same body design (Compact).

Before getting straight to a detailed comparison, here is a brief view of how the Z950 grades vs the P330 in regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Following is a sample of the gallery pictures for Kodak EasyShare Z950 and Nikon Coolpix P330. The complete galleries are viewable at Kodak Z950 Gallery and Nikon P330 Gallery.

In case you're intending to lug around your camera regularly, you'll have to think about its weight and dimensions. The Kodak Z950 enjoys outer dimensions of 110mm x 67mm x 36mm (4.3" x 2.6" x 1.4") along with a weight of 243 grams (0.54 lbs) and the Nikon P330 has dimensions of 103mm x 58mm x 32mm (4.1" x 2.3" x 1.3") and a weight of 200 grams (0.44 lbs).

Remember that, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change depending on the lens you are utilising at that time. Underneath is a front view size comparison of the Z950 versus the P330.

Taking into account size and weight, the portability grade of the Z950 and P330 is 89 and 92 respectively.

Often, its tough to visualize the contrast between sensor measurements just by checking specs. The photograph underneath may provide you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the Z950 and P330.

All in all, the two cameras have the same resolution but different sensor measurements. The Z950 comes with the tinier sensor which will make getting shallower depth of field more challenging. The older Z950 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
