Before getting into a complete comparison, here is a brief overview of how the Z5 scores vs the G3 with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

The following is a sample of the gallery pics for Nikon Z5 & Panasonic Lumix DMC-G3. The whole galleries are available at Nikon Z5 Gallery & Panasonic G3 Gallery.

Quite often, it is tough to imagine the gap between sensor dimensions purely by looking at specifications. The pic underneath will help offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the Z5 and G3.

Plainly, both the cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The Z5 having a larger sensor is going to make shooting bokeh easier and the Nikon Z5 will resolve extra detail with its extra 8MP. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop pics way more aggressively. The newer Z5 provides an edge when it comes to sensor technology.
