Nikon D7500 vs Sony ZV-1 II

Lets examine more in depth at the Nikon D7500 and Sony ZV-1 II, former being a Advanced DSLR while the other is a Large Sensor Compact by companies Nikon and Sony. The image resolution of the D7500 (21MP) and the ZV-1 II (20MP) is very comparable but the D7500 (APS-C) and ZV-1 II (1") use different sensor sizing.

The D7500 was revealed 7 years earlier than the ZV-1 II and that is a fairly sizable difference as far as camera technology is concerned. Both of these cameras come with different body type with the Nikon D7500 being a Mid-size SLR camera and the Sony ZV-1 II being a Large Sensor Compact camera.

Before going through a full comparison, below is a short overview of how the D7500 scores versus the ZV-1 II in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

More often than not, it is hard to visualize the difference in sensor sizing purely by seeing a spec sheet. The visual here might offer you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the D7500 and ZV-1 II.

Clearly, each of these cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The D7500 using its larger sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field simpler and the Nikon D7500 will provide greater detail because of its extra 1 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The older D7500 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
