Nikon P7000 vs Panasonic FH7

Let's take a deeper look at the Nikon P7000 vs Panasonic FH7, both Small Sensor Compact digital cameras by brands Nikon and Panasonic. There exists a significant gap between the image resolutions of the P7000 (10MP) and FH7 (16MP) and the P7000 (1/1.7") and FH7 (1/2.3") provide totally different sensor sizing.

The P7000 was introduced 9 months before the FH7 which means that they are both of a similar generation. Each of these cameras have the same body design (Compact).

Before diving right into a more detailed comparison, here is a quick overview of how the P7000 grades vs the FH7 with regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

This is a sample of the gallery pictures for Nikon Coolpix P7000 and Panasonic Lumix DMC-FH7. The whole galleries are provided at Nikon P7000 Gallery and Panasonic FH7 Gallery.

If you are going to carry your camera often, you will want to factor its weight and proportions. The Nikon P7000 has outer dimensions of 114mm x 77mm x 45mm (4.5" x 3.0" x 1.8") with a weight of 310 grams (0.68 lbs) and the Panasonic FH7 has measurements of 95mm x 56mm x 19mm (3.7" x 2.2" x 0.7") and a weight of 126 grams (0.28 lbs).

Keep in mind, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary based on the lens you are utilising at that time. Here is a front view scale comparison of the P7000 compared to the FH7.

Using dimensions and weight, the portability score of the P7000 and FH7 is 85 and 96 respectively.

Sometimes, it can be tough to visualise the difference between sensor sizing only by going over specifications. The photograph here might provide you a clearer sense of the sensor sizes in the P7000 and FH7.

To sum up, both the cameras provide different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The P7000 using its larger sensor will make shooting shallower DOF simpler and the Panasonic FH7 will deliver more detail using its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop pics more aggressively. The older P7000 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
