Nikon Coolpix P300 with Olympus Stylus 7000 Overview


Let's compare Olympus Stylus 7000 with Nikon Coolpix P300. These models are included in the Small Sensor Compact cameras. Olympus 7000 was released in 2009, and Nikon P300 in 2011. Coolpix P300 is newer, which is a plus. Stylus 7000 2 years older.
These two cameras have the same sensor resolution - 12 MP. 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 second camera (Coolpix P300), 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. At Nikon P300, the maximum ISO is greater by 1600. Both cameras have Sensor-shift image stabilization. Both cameras feature a 3-inch fixed screen.
Olympus Stylus 7000 has 7.0 fps continuous shooting.
