The P7800 was unveiled 4 years later than the 8000 and that is quite a big gap as far as technology is concerned. The two cameras offer the identical body type (Compact).

Before getting straight into a complete comparison, below is a concise overview of how the P7800 grades against the 8000 in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

This is a preview of the gallery photos for Nikon Coolpix P7800 and Olympus Stylus Tough 8000. The full galleries are available at Nikon P7800 Gallery and Olympus 8000 Gallery.

If you're going to carry your camera, you will need to factor its weight and volume.

Taking into consideration dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the P7800 and 8000 is 82 and 94 respectively.

Quite often, it's tough to envision the gap between sensor sizing just by reading through technical specs. The photograph here may offer you a stronger sense of the sensor sizes in the P7800 and 8000.

As you can tell, both cameras enjoy the same exact megapixels albeit not the same sensor sizing. The P7800 has the bigger sensor which is going to make achieving bokeh less difficult. The newer P7800 will have a benefit in sensor technology.
