Leica V-Lux 20 vs Nikon P7700

Let's look a bit more in depth at the Leica V-Lux 20 versus Nikon P7700, former being a Small Sensor Superzoom while the latter is a Small Sensor Compact by brands Leica and Nikon. The sensor resolution of the V-Lux 20 (12MP) and the P7700 (12MP) is pretty close but the V-Lux 20 (1/2.3") and P7700 (1/1.7") have different sensor measurements.

The V-Lux 20 was manufactured 4 years earlier than the P7700 and that is a fairly big difference as far as camera technology is concerned. Both of these cameras have the same body design (Compact).

Before delving straight to a comprehensive comparison, here is a simple view of how the V-Lux 20 scores vs the P7700 with regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Here is a preview of the gallery images for Leica V-Lux 20 & Nikon Coolpix P7700. The entire galleries are viewable at Leica V-Lux 20 Gallery & Nikon P7700 Gallery.

When you are intending to lug around your camera frequently, you will have to factor its weight and measurements. The Leica V-Lux 20 provides outside dimensions of 103mm x 60mm x 33mm (4.1" x 2.4" x 1.3") with a weight of 218 grams (0.48 lbs) whilst the Nikon P7700 has proportions of 119mm x 73mm x 50mm (4.7" x 2.9" x 2.0") accompanied by a weight of 392 grams (0.86 lbs).

Take into consideration, the weight of an ILC will differ based on the lens you choose during that time. The following is a front view overall size comparison of the V-Lux 20 against the P7700.

Taking into consideration dimensions and weight, the portability score of the V-Lux 20 and P7700 is 91 and 82 respectively.

Sometimes, it is very hard to imagine the gap in sensor measurements just by researching specifications. The graphic here will give you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the V-Lux 20 and P7700.

Plainly, both of the cameras have the same megapixel count albeit different sensor measurements. The V-Lux 20 comes with the smaller sensor which is going to make obtaining shallower DOF more challenging. The older V-Lux 20 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
