Canon 100D vs Pentax K110D Sensor Comparison

Normally, it can be hard to see the gap between sensor measurements just by reading through specs. The graphic below will help offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the 100D and K110D.

As you can plainly see, the 2 cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing but not the same MP. You can expect to see the Canon 100D to give you extra detail because of its extra 12 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also let you crop images a little more aggressively. The more modern 100D is going to have an advantage with regard to sensor technology.
