The Z5 was revealed 9 years after the W570 which is quite a significant gap as far as technology is concerned. Each of these cameras feature different body design with the Nikon Z5 being a SLR-style mirrorless camera and the Sony W570 being a Ultracompact camera.

Before diving right into a detailed comparison, here is a quick highlight of how the Z5 matches up versus the W570 with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

The following is a preview of the gallery photos for Nikon Z5 and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W570. The full galleries are provided at Nikon Z5 Gallery and Sony W570 Gallery.

Sometimes, it is hard to visualise the difference between sensor sizes only by reading a spec sheet. The image here might provide you a greater sense of the sensor dimensions in the Z5 and W570.

As you can see, the 2 cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The Z5 with its bigger sensor will make shooting bokeh simpler and the Nikon Z5 will offer you more detail because of its extra 8 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop pictures way more aggressively. The more recent Z5 is going to have a benefit when it comes to sensor innovation.
