The P340 was manufactured 3 years later than the P7000 and that is quite a big gap as far as tech is concerned. The two cameras have the same body design (Compact).

Before getting right into a full comparison, here is a quick view of how the P340 grades against the P7000 when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

The following is a preview of the gallery photos for Nikon Coolpix P340 and Nikon Coolpix P7000. The entire galleries are provided at Nikon P340 Gallery and Nikon P7000 Gallery.

In many cases, it is very tough to visualise the difference between sensor sizing just by checking specifications. The visual here will provide you a better sense of the sensor sizing in the P340 and P7000.

Plainly, each of these cameras provide the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same resolution. You should count on the Nikon P340 to resolve more detail due to its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also let you crop shots more aggressively. The more recent P340 is going to have an advantage when it comes to sensor technology.
