Nikon D100 vs Panasonic S1H

Lets look more closely at the Nikon D100 versus Panasonic S1H, one is a Advanced DSLR and the other is a Pro Mirrorless by brands Nikon and Panasonic. There exists a sizeable gap among the sensor resolutions of the D100 (6MP) and S1H (24MP) and the D100 (APS-C) and S1H (Full frame) provide different sensor size.

The D100 was revealed 18 years prior to the S1H which is a fairly large gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Both of the cameras feature different body design with the Nikon D100 being a Mid-size SLR camera and the Panasonic S1H being a SLR-style mirrorless camera.

Before we go right into a in depth comparison, here is a brief introduction of how the D100 grades against the S1H when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

Here is a sample of the gallery pics for Nikon D100 and Panasonic Lumix DC-S1H. The full galleries are viewable at Nikon D100 Gallery and Panasonic S1H Gallery.

If you're aiming to carry around your camera regularly, you'll have to factor its weight and measurements. The Nikon D100 provides outside measurements of 144mm x 116mm x 81mm (5.7" x 4.6" x 3.2") having a weight of 780 grams (1.72 lbs) while the Panasonic S1H has proportions of 151mm x 114mm x 110mm (5.9" x 4.5" x 4.3") with a weight of 1052 grams (2.32 lbs).

Bear in mind, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary dependant on the lens you have chosen at the time. Here is a front view dimensions comparison of the D100 vs the S1H.

Factoring in dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the D100 and S1H is 58 and 52 respectively.

Sometimes, it is difficult to imagine the gap in sensor sizes only by researching technical specs. The image here should offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the D100 and S1H.

As you have seen, both of these cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The D100 using its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallow DOF more challenging and the Panasonic S1H will provide you with more detail because of its extra 18 Megapixels. Greater resolution will enable you to crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The more aged D100 will be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
