Canon 20D vs Canon M

Here, we are analyzing the Canon 20D and Canon M, one being a Advanced DSLR and the other is a Entry-Level Mirrorless and both of them are created by Canon. There is a significant difference among the resolutions of the 20D (8MP) and M (18MP) but both cameras provide the identical sensor measurements (APS-C).

The 20D was introduced 8 years prior to the M and that is a fairly sizable gap as far as camera tech is concerned. Both the cameras feature different body design with the Canon 20D being a Mid-size SLR camera and the Canon M being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera.

Before delving into a more detailed comparison, here is a brief summation of how the 20D grades against the M with regard to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

The following is a sample of the gallery pics for Canon EOS 20D and Canon EOS M. The whole galleries are viewable at Canon 20D Gallery and Canon M Gallery.

In case you're going to lug around your camera frequently, you need to factor its weight and dimensions. The Canon 20D offers physical dimensions of 144mm x 106mm x 72mm (5.7" x 4.2" x 2.8") with a weight of 770 grams (1.70 lbs) whilst the Canon M has dimensions of 109mm x 66mm x 32mm (4.3" x 2.6" x 1.3") having a weight of 298 grams (0.66 lbs).

Looking at size and weight, the portability rating of the 20D and M is 59 and 89 respectively.

Usually, it's hard to visualize the gap in sensor measurements purely by researching specs. The visual here may provide you a better sense of the sensor sizes in the 20D and M.

As you can plainly see, both cameras come with the identical sensor size but different resolution. You should expect to see the Canon M to result in extra detail using its extra 10 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The older 20D will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
