To sum up, both of the cameras provide different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The Z50 having a larger sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field simpler and the Nikon Z50 will deliver extra detail with its extra 1 Megapixels. Greater resolution will help you crop pics more aggressively. The more recent Z50 will have an advantage when it comes to sensor technology.
