Canon 10D vs Canon 20Da

Its time to look a little more closely at the Canon 10D versus Canon 20Da, both Advanced DSLR digital cameras and both of them are created by Canon. There is a substantial difference between the image resolutions of the 10D (6MP) and 20Da (8MP) but they feature the exact same sensor size (APS-C).

The 10D was brought out 3 years prior to the 20Da and that is quite a big difference as far as tech is concerned. Both of these cameras come with the identical body type (Mid-size SLR).

Before we go through a more detailed comparison, below is a simple summation of how the 10D scores vs the 20Da for portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Following is a sample of the gallery pics for Canon EOS 10D & Canon EOS 20Da. The entire galleries are viewable at Canon 10D Gallery & Canon 20Da Gallery.

For anyone who is intending to lug around your camera, you will need to factor in its weight and size. The Canon 10D comes with outside measurements of 150mm x 107mm x 75mm (5.9" x 4.2" x 3.0") having a weight of 875 grams (1.93 lbs) and the Canon 20Da has specifications of 144mm x 106mm x 72mm (5.7" x 4.2" x 2.8") and a weight of 770 grams (1.70 lbs).

Looking at size and weight, the portability score of the 10D and 20Da is 56 and 59 respectively.

Often, it is very hard to visualise the difference between sensor measurements purely by reading technical specs. The visual below will help offer you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the 10D and 20Da.

As you can tell, each of the cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You can expect to see the Canon 20Da to offer extra detail having its extra 2MP. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop images somewhat more aggressively. The older 10D is going to be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
