Canon 20Da vs Canon 50D

Lets examine more closely at the Canon 20Da vs Canon 50D, both Advanced DSLR digital cameras and they are both created by Canon. There is a crucial difference between the sensor resolutions of the 20Da (8MP) and 50D (15MP) but they feature the same exact sensor sizing (APS-C).

The 20Da was released 4 years before the 50D which is quite a serious gap as far as tech is concerned. Both of the cameras offer the identical body type (Mid-size SLR).

Before delving through a in-depth comparison, below is a simple view of how the 20Da scores vs the 50D in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

This is a sample of the gallery pictures for Canon EOS 20Da and Canon EOS 50D. The complete galleries are available at Canon 20Da Gallery and Canon 50D Gallery.

When you are planning to carry around your camera regularly, you are going to need to factor its weight and dimensions. The Canon 20Da has outer measurements of 144mm x 106mm x 72mm (5.7" x 4.2" x 2.8") and a weight of 770 grams (1.70 lbs) whilst the Canon 50D has dimensions of 146mm x 108mm x 74mm (5.7" x 4.3" x 2.9") accompanied by a weight of 822 grams (1.81 lbs).

Remember, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change dependant on the lens you are working with during that time. Following is the front view proportions comparison of the 20Da and the 50D.

Using size and weight, the portability score of the 20Da and 50D is 59 and 57 respectively.

In many cases, it's hard to visualise the gap between sensor sizes just by reading through specifications. The picture here might offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the 20Da and 50D.

To sum up, both of those cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing but not the same resolution. You should anticipate the Canon 50D to give more detail as a result of its extra 7MP. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop images a little more aggressively. The more aged 20Da is going to be behind in sensor technology.
