All in all, both of these cameras come with the identical sensor size albeit not the same MP. You should count on the Sony H200 to provide more detail because of its extra 8 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also help you crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The more aged 7000 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
