The M9-P was revealed 8 years prior to the Z7 which is quite a sizable gap as far as technology is concerned. Both the cameras feature different body design with the Leica M9-P being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera and the Nikon Z7 being a SLR-style mirrorless camera.

Before getting right into a in-depth comparison, here is a concise summation of how the M9-P matches up against the Z7 for portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Following is a sample of the gallery pictures for Leica M9-P and Nikon Z7. The full galleries are provided at Leica M9-P Gallery and Nikon Z7 Gallery.

Sometimes, it can be difficult to envision the contrast between sensor dimensions merely by reviewing technical specs. The pic below might offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the M9-P and Z7.

As you can tell, both of these cameras come with the identical sensor size but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Nikon Z7 to offer greater detail because of its extra 28 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The more aged M9-P is going to be behind with regard to sensor tech.
