The S01 was manufactured 17 months after the TX200V making the cameras a generation away from one another. Both of these cameras come with the identical body type (Ultracompact).

Before we go through a detailed comparison, below is a brief view of how the S01 grades against the TX200V when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Here is a sample of the gallery pics for Nikon Coolpix S01 and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX200V. The entire galleries are available at Nikon S01 Gallery and Sony TX200V Gallery.

If you're aiming to travel with your camera, you need to think about its weight and measurements. The Nikon S01 features outer dimensions of 77mm x 52mm x 17mm (3.0" x 2.0" x 0.7") and a weight of 96 grams (0.21 lbs) whilst the Sony TX200V has proportions of 96mm x 58mm x 16mm (3.8" x 2.3" x 0.6") accompanied by a weight of 129 grams (0.28 lbs).

Take into consideration, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary depending on the lens you are employing at that moment. Here is the front view physical size comparison of the S01 vs the TX200V.

Factoring in dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the S01 and TX200V is 97 and 96 respectively.

Typically, it is difficult to imagine the gap between sensor dimensions merely by reviewing specifications. The pic underneath will provide you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the S01 and TX200V.

Plainly, both of the cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The S01 due to its tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallower DOF more difficult and the Sony TX200V will offer extra detail due to its extra 8MP. Greater resolution can also let you crop images somewhat more aggressively. The younger S01 should have a benefit in sensor tech.
