Leica V-Lux 4 vs Nikon P610

Here is a thorough review of the Leica V-Lux 4 vs Nikon P610, both Small Sensor Superzoom digital cameras by companies Leica and Nikon. There is a crucial difference between the sensor resolutions of the V-Lux 4 (12MP) and P610 (16MP) but they come with the same exact sensor sizes (1/2.3").

The V-Lux 4 was announced 3 years earlier than the P610 and that is quite a serious gap as far as tech is concerned. The two cameras offer the identical body type (SLR-like (bridge)).

Before delving through a more detailed comparison, below is a brief summary of how the V-Lux 4 grades vs the P610 in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

For anybody who is intending to carry your camera, you'll need to think about its weight and volume.

Factoring in size and weight, the portability grade of the V-Lux 4 and P610 is 65 and 65 respectively.

Often, it is very difficult to envision the difference between sensor sizing only by reading through a spec sheet. The photograph below will offer you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the V-Lux 4 and P610.

Clearly, both of those cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing but not the same resolution. You should expect to see the Nikon P610 to resolve greater detail with its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also let you crop images far more aggressively. The older V-Lux 4 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
