The Z50 was manufactured 8 years after the G3 which is a fairly significant difference as far as camera tech is concerned. Each of the cameras feature the same body design (SLR-style mirrorless).

Before delving into a detailed comparison, here is a short summation of how the Z50 grades vs the G3 with regard to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

The following is a sample of the gallery pictures for Nikon Z50 & Panasonic Lumix DMC-G3. The entire galleries are provided at Nikon Z50 Gallery & Panasonic G3 Gallery.

For anyone who is aiming to carry around your camera frequently, you'll need to take into account its weight and dimensions.

Usually, it is tough to imagine the gap in sensor sizes just by seeing a spec sheet. The picture here should offer you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the Z50 and G3.

Clearly, both the cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The Z50 featuring a larger sensor is going to make shooting bokeh simpler and the Nikon Z50 will produce extra detail due to its extra 5MP. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop images a good deal more aggressively. The fresher Z50 should have an edge when it comes to sensor innovation.
