The S3700 was released 5 years later than the W310 and that is a fairly big gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Both the cameras come with the identical body type (Ultracompact).

Before going in to a complete comparison, below is a quick summation of how the S3700 matches up against the W310 in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Following is a sample of the gallery pictures for Nikon Coolpix S3700 and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W310. The complete galleries are provided at Nikon S3700 Gallery and Sony W310 Gallery.

In case you're going to carry your camera frequently, you'll need to consider its weight and volume.

Sometimes, it's difficult to see the contrast in sensor sizing only by researching technical specs. The photograph underneath will give you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the S3700 and W310.

As you have seen, both of the cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Nikon S3700 to result in greater detail as a result of its extra 8 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop photos somewhat more aggressively. The younger S3700 is going to have an advantage in sensor tech.
