Size and weight are big decision factors when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs.
In this section, we are going to illustrate the Nikon D7000 and Nikon P530 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon D7000 has external dimensions of 132 x 105 x 77 mm (5.2 x 4.13 x 3.03″) and weighs 780 g (1.72 lb / 27.51 oz) (including batteries). Nikon P530 has external dimensions of 123 x 84 x 98 mm (4.83 x 3.31 x 3.87″) and weighs 494 g (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon D7000 and the Nikon P530. Nikon P530 is 9mm narrower and 21mm shorter than Nikon D7000 but it is also 21mm thicker. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Nikon P530 has a built-in lens but Nikon D7000 doesn't. Once you put a lens on D7000, its thickness will increase significantly.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon D7000 and Nikon P530.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon P530 is significantly lighter (286g ) than the Nikon D7000 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Again, this comparison may not be very useful in real life as we are comparing the weight of a camera with a built-in lens to the body-only weight of an interchangeable lens camera. Once you put a lens on D7000, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
With its weather-sealed body, we believe that the D7000 has a big advantage over the P530 which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Nikon D7000 and Nikon P530's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
