Below is a in-depth review of the Canon 1100D vs Pentax K100D S, both Entry-Level DSLR digital cameras by companies Canon and Pentax. There exists a considerable gap between the resolutions of the 1100D (12MP) and K100D S (6MP) but both cameras have the identical sensor measurements (APS-C).

The 1100D was brought out 3 years later than the K100D S and that is quite a large difference as far as technology is concerned. Each of these cameras feature the same body design (Compact SLR).

Before we go right into a more detailed comparison, here is a brief summary of how the 1100D matches up versus the K100D S in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

This is a sample of the gallery pics for Canon EOS 1100D & Pentax K100D Super. The entire galleries are available at Canon 1100D Gallery & Pentax K100D S Gallery.

For anybody who is going to lug around your camera, you need to think about its weight and measurements.

Sometimes, it is difficult to see the gap between sensor measurements purely by going over a spec sheet. The visual below may give you a stronger sense of the sensor dimensions in the 1100D and K100D S.

Clearly, both of the cameras feature the identical sensor size but not the same resolution. You can expect to see the Canon 1100D to offer you more detail having its extra 6MP. Greater resolution will let you crop pics way more aggressively. The fresher 1100D is going to have an edge when it comes to sensor technology.
