Olympus FE-3010 with Nikon Coolpix L31 Overview


Let's compare Nikon Coolpix L31 with Olympus FE-3010. These models are included in the Ultracompact cameras. Nikon L31 was released in 2015, and Olympus FE-3010 in 2009. Coolpix L31 is newer, which is a plus. FE-3010 6 years older. 6 years, this is a pretty big age difference.
The sensor resolution of Coolpix L31 is greater than that of FE-3010. However, the difference of 4 MP is not very significant. The more megapixels the camera has, the more detailed and clear the picture will be. The number of megapixels will also affect the maximum size of the photos, which then can be printed without loss of quality.
At the first camera (Coolpix L31), the minimum ISO value is lower, which gives more opportunities for shooting in daylight. A larger maximum ISO allows you to take good pictures in the dark. Coolpix L31 has image stabilization(Digital only), FE-3010 doesn’t, it is a big minus. Both cameras feature a 2-inch fixed screen.
