Verdict
Pick the Nikon Coolpix W300 if you need a rugged, waterproof body and prioritize 4K video or slightly faster burst shooting. The Canon PowerShot SX720 HS stays the better choice if higher resolution (20.3 MP) is critical for stills and you don’t require 4K or underwater use. Budget favors the W300 by 45 EUR.
