Nikon S570 vs Panasonic FH25

Let's examine more closely at the Nikon S570 vs Panasonic FH25, both Small Sensor Compact digital cameras by competitors Nikon and Panasonic. There is a crucial difference between the sensor resolutions of the S570 (12MP) and FH25 (16MP) but they come with the same exact sensor sizes (1/2.3").

The S570 was revealed 17 months before the FH25 making the cameras a generation apart from each other. Each of these cameras offer the identical body type (Compact).

Before we go in to a in-depth comparison, below is a quick synopsis of how the S570 matches up vs the FH25 when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

This is a sample of the gallery pictures for Nikon Coolpix S570 and Panasonic Lumix DMC-FH25. The full galleries are provided at Nikon S570 Gallery and Panasonic FH25 Gallery.

If you're going to carry your camera often, you have to factor its weight and proportions. The Nikon S570 comes with external measurements of 92mm x 57mm x 22mm (3.6" x 2.2" x 0.9") along with a weight of 140 grams (0.31 lbs) and the Panasonic FH25 has measurements of 99mm x 57mm x 28mm (3.9" x 2.2" x 1.1") and a weight of 159 grams (0.35 lbs).

Remember, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ based on the lens you use at the time. Following is the front view dimensions comparison of the S570 and the FH25.

Looking at size and weight, the portability rating of the S570 and FH25 is 95 and 94 respectively.

In many cases, it can be difficult to visualise the gap between sensor sizing just by looking at specifications. The photograph here may provide you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the S570 and FH25.

Plainly, the 2 cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing but not the same resolution. You should anticipate the Panasonic FH25 to give you greater detail because of its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will enable you to crop photos far more aggressively. The older S570 is going to be behind in sensor tech.
