Plainly, both of the cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The Z30 using its larger sensor is going to make getting shallower DOF less difficult and the Nikon Z30 will produce extra detail with its extra 9MP. Greater resolution can also let you crop photos more aggressively. The more modern Z30 provides a benefit with regard to sensor technology.
