The P7700 was unveiled 4 years later than the HZ10W and that is a fairly large gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Both the cameras have the same body design (Compact).

Before diving right into a complete comparison, here is a short synopsis of how the P7700 matches up against the HZ10W in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Here is a sample of the gallery pics for Nikon Coolpix P7700 and Samsung HZ10W. The full galleries are viewable at Nikon P7700 Gallery and Samsung HZ10W Gallery.

More often than not, it is very hard to envision the gap in sensor measurements purely by going through specifications. The graphic here may offer you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the P7700 and HZ10W.

Plainly, both of these cameras have different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The P7700 using its larger sensor will make shooting bokeh easier and the Nikon P7700 will provide greater detail having an extra 2MP. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop images a bit more aggressively. The younger P7700 is going to have a benefit with regard to sensor tech.
