From P7700 specification we can say its a tough competitor for Canon G12 and Nikon P7100, but Nikon is lagging behind in the advanced compact camera market with large-sensor such as the Sony RX100 and the Canon G1 X.
As today many big sensor camera show overheating heating problem, the RX 100 is showing amazing performance with its 1 inch sensor, the video below shows that it records for the full 30min in 31 C and direct sunlight, most larger sensor cameras would struggle to do that.
