Nikon L120 vs Panasonic ZS70

Lets look a little more closely at the Nikon L120 versus Panasonic ZS70, both Small Sensor Superzoom digital cameras by brands Nikon and Panasonic. There exists a sizable gap between the resolutions of the L120 (14MP) and ZS70 (20MP) but both cameras offer the same sensor measurements (1/2.3").

The L120 was manufactured 7 years earlier than the ZS70 which is quite a significant difference as far as technology is concerned. Each of these cameras have the same body design (Compact).

Before diving straight to a in depth comparison, here is a short overview of how the L120 scores versus the ZS70 in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Below is a sample of the gallery pics for Nikon Coolpix L120 & Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS70. The entire galleries are viewable at Nikon L120 Gallery & Panasonic ZS70 Gallery.

If you're looking to travel with your camera often, you will need to think about its weight and measurements.

Don't forget, the weight of an ILC will differ depending on the lens you use at that time. Below is a front view size comparison of the L120 vs the ZS70.

Taking into consideration dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the L120 and ZS70 is 75 and 87 respectively.

Normally, its tough to visualize the gap between sensor dimensions only by looking at specifications. The image underneath should offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the L120 and ZS70.

Plainly, both of the cameras have the same sensor dimensions but different resolution. You can expect to see the Panasonic ZS70 to give greater detail due to its extra 6MP. Greater resolution will enable you to crop pics a bit more aggressively. The more aged L120 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
