Kodak Z990 vs Nikon P610 Sensor Comparison
Generally, it is difficult to see the contrast in sensor sizes only by viewing a spec sheet. The pic underneath may offer you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the Z990 and P610.
Clearly, both the cameras feature the identical sensor size but not the same megapixels. You should expect to see the Nikon P610 to result in extra detail due to its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will also let you crop images way more aggressively. The more aged Z990 will be behind in sensor tech.
