Nikon P7000 vs Sony WX80 Sensor Comparison

          

          

            
Often, it's difficult to visualise the gap in sensor dimensions purely by seeing specifications. The pic underneath might give you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the P7000 and WX80.
To sum up, the 2 cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The P7000 because of its larger sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field easier and the Sony WX80 will produce more detail having its extra 6MP. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop photos more aggressively. The more aged P7000 will be behind in sensor technology.
