Nikon L110 vs Nikon P900

Its time to look more closely at the Nikon L110 and Nikon P900, both Small Sensor Superzoom cameras and they are both designed by Nikon. There exists a large gap among the resolutions of the L110 (12MP) and P900 (16MP) but both cameras provide the same sensor sizing (1/2.3").

The L110 was introduced 6 years prior to the P900 and that is a fairly serious difference as far as camera technology is concerned. Both the cameras have different body design with the Nikon L110 being a Compact camera and the Nikon P900 being a SLR-like (bridge) camera.

Before diving straight to a thorough comparison, here is a simple introduction of how the L110 grades versus the P900 in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Here is a sample of the gallery pictures for Nikon Coolpix L110 & Nikon Coolpix P900. The whole galleries are viewable at Nikon L110 Gallery & Nikon P900 Gallery.

If you are looking to lug around your camera, you will need to consider its weight and measurements. The Nikon L110 enjoys outer measurements of 109mm x 74mm x 78mm (4.3" x 2.9" x 3.1") accompanied by a weight of 406 grams (0.90 lbs) and the Nikon P900 has proportions of 140mm x 103mm x 137mm (5.5" x 4.1" x 5.4") having a weight of 899 grams (1.98 lbs).

Don't forget, the weight of an ILC will vary based on the lens you are employing at that moment. Underneath is a front view size comparison of the L110 compared to the P900.

Factoring in dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the L110 and P900 is 77 and 52 respectively.

Normally, it is very difficult to visualise the gap in sensor measurements simply by viewing specifications. The photograph here should provide you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the L110 and P900.

Plainly, both cameras have the same sensor dimensions but not the same MP. You can anticipate the Nikon P900 to render more detail using its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will allow you to crop pics a bit more aggressively. The older L110 will be behind when it comes to sensor tech.
