Nikon P100 vs Sony H200 Sensor Comparison
Often, it is difficult to envision the gap between sensor sizing merely by reviewing specs. The visual underneath might offer you a more clear sense of the sensor sizes in the P100 and H200.
As you can plainly see, both the cameras have the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same resolution. You can expect the Sony H200 to offer you more detail utilizing its extra 10 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also let you crop pictures a bit more aggressively. The older P100 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
