The S1H was introduced 6 years after the W730 which is quite a large gap as far as tech is concerned. The two cameras feature different body design with the Panasonic S1H being a SLR-style mirrorless camera and the Sony W730 being a Compact camera.

Before delving right into a complete comparison, here is a simple synopsis of how the S1H scores against the W730 in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

The following is a sample of the gallery pics for Panasonic Lumix DC-S1H and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W730. The whole galleries are provided at Panasonic S1H Gallery and Sony W730 Gallery.

If you are looking to travel with your camera, you're going to have to factor in its weight and proportions.

Oftentimes, it's difficult to envision the gap between sensor dimensions just by reading a spec sheet. The pic underneath might provide you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the S1H and W730.

Clearly, each of the cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The S1H with its larger sensor will make getting shallower DOF easier and the Panasonic S1H will deliver more detail using its extra 8 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also let you crop pics way more aggressively. The younger S1H will have an edge in sensor tech.
