Canon 1200D vs Pentax H90

Lets examine more closely at the Canon 1200D and Pentax H90, one being a Entry-Level DSLR and the other is a Small Sensor Compact by brands Canon and Pentax. There is a huge difference between the sensor resolutions of the 1200D (18MP) and H90 (12MP) and the 1200D (APS-C) and H90 (1/2.3") feature totally different sensor measurements.

The 1200D was announced 4 years later than the H90 and that is quite a significant gap as far as tech is concerned. Both of these cameras come with different body type with the Canon 1200D being a Compact SLR camera and the Pentax H90 being a Compact camera.

Before diving straight into a in depth comparison, below is a concise overview of how the 1200D matches up against the H90 for portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Oftentimes, it is very difficult to envision the contrast between sensor sizing purely by reading through a spec sheet. The photograph underneath will give you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the 1200D and H90.

Clearly, both of these cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The 1200D with its larger sensor will make shooting bokeh less difficult and the Canon 1200D will give greater detail with its extra 6MP. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop photos much more aggressively. The more recent 1200D is going to have an edge when it comes to sensor tech.
