Nikon P7000 vs Nikon S630 Sensor Comparison

Typically, its tough to picture the contrast in sensor dimensions only by checking out specifications. The picture here will provide you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the P7000 and S630.

Plainly, both of the cameras offer different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The P7000 because of its bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field easier and the Nikon S630 will produce more detail utilizing its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop photographs a little more aggressively. The newer P7000 should have an edge when it comes to sensor innovation.
