Kodak M590 vs Nikon A10

Its time to look a little more in depth at the Kodak M590 vs Nikon A10, both Ultracompact cameras by competitors Kodak and Nikon. The resolution of the M590 (14MP) and the A10 (16MP) is fairly close but the M590 (1/3") and A10 (1/2.3") boast different sensor dimensions.

The M590 was released 6 years before the A10 and that is a fairly significant gap as far as camera tech is concerned. Both of the cameras feature the same body design (Ultracompact).

Before diving straight to a in-depth comparison, here is a brief summation of how the M590 scores vs the A10 in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Here is a sample of the gallery pictures for Kodak M590 and Nikon Coolpix A10. The complete galleries are available at Kodak M590 Gallery and Nikon A10 Gallery.

If you're intending to carry your camera, you will need to factor in its weight and volume.

Generally, its difficult to imagine the contrast in sensor sizing simply by looking through specs. The visual underneath might offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the M590 and A10.

All in all, both cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The M590 because of its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field more difficult and the Nikon A10 will provide you with more detail as a result of its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also let you crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The older M590 will be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
