Nikon Z5 vs Olympus FE-25

Let's look a bit more closely at the Nikon Z5 vs Olympus FE-25, one is a Advanced Mirrorless and the latter is a Ultracompact by competitors Nikon and Olympus. There is a big difference between the sensor resolutions of the Z5 (24MP) and FE-25 (10MP) and the Z5 (Full frame) and FE-25 (1/2.3") have different sensor sizes.

The Z5 was brought out 11 years after the FE-25 which is quite a big gap as far as tech is concerned. Each of these cameras feature different body design with the Nikon Z5 being a SLR-style mirrorless camera and the Olympus FE-25 being a Ultracompact camera.

Before getting straight to a complete comparison, here is a brief synopsis of how the Z5 scores against the FE-25 in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

Below is a preview of the gallery photos for Nikon Z5 and Olympus FE-25. The entire galleries are available at Nikon Z5 Gallery and Olympus FE-25 Gallery.

For those who are aiming to carry around your camera, you're going to have to think about its weight and dimensions.

Always remember, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change depending on the lens you are utilizing at that moment. Below is a front view proportions comparison of the Z5 and the FE-25.

Using size and weight, the portability score of the Z5 and FE-25 is 62 and 98 respectively.

Oftentimes, it can be difficult to imagine the contrast between sensor sizes merely by going over technical specs. The pic below may provide you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the Z5 and FE-25.

As you can tell, both the cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The Z5 due to its bigger sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF easier and the Nikon Z5 will deliver extra detail having its extra 14 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also let you crop shots a good deal more aggressively. The more recent Z5 should have an edge in sensor tech.
