The FZ150 was manufactured 5 years prior to the HX350 which is quite a sizable gap as far as tech is concerned. Both the cameras have the same body design (SLR-like (bridge)).

Before diving right into a detailed comparison, here is a short view of how the FZ150 grades vs the HX350 when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

Below is a sample of the gallery pics for Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ150 and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX350. The entire galleries are available at Panasonic FZ150 Gallery and Sony HX350 Gallery.

If you are aiming to carry around your camera often, you'll need to factor its weight and proportions.

Oftentimes, its tough to picture the gap between sensor sizes merely by looking at a spec sheet. The pic here will help provide you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the FZ150 and HX350.

Clearly, each of the cameras have the same sensor dimensions but different megapixels. You should expect to see the Sony HX350 to give you greater detail due to its extra 8 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also let you crop photos a bit more aggressively. The more aged FZ150 is going to be behind in sensor tech.
