Its time to look more closely at the Panasonic S1 vs Panasonic ZS35, one being a Small Sensor Compact and the latter is a Small Sensor Superzoom and both are designed by Panasonic. There exists a big gap between the image resolutions of the S1 (12MP) and ZS35 (16MP) but both cameras have the identical sensor dimensions (1/2.3").

The S1 was introduced 4 years prior to the ZS35 and that is quite a big gap as far as technology is concerned. Each of these cameras feature the same body design (Compact).

Before diving into a in depth comparison, here is a concise introduction of how the S1 grades against the ZS35 in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

This is a preview of the gallery photos for Panasonic Lumix DMC-S1 and Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS35. The whole galleries are provided at Panasonic S1 Gallery and Panasonic ZS35 Gallery.

For anybody who is intending to lug around your camera often, you have to factor in its weight and measurements.

Typically, it is very tough to visualize the difference between sensor measurements simply by reading through specifications. The visual here may give you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the S1 and ZS35.

Plainly, both of these cameras feature the identical sensor size albeit different resolution. You should count on the Panasonic ZS35 to resolve extra detail using its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop pictures way more aggressively. The older S1 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
