Canon 300D vs Olympus E-400

Here, we are evaluating the Canon 300D vs Olympus E-400, both Entry-Level DSLR digital cameras by brands Canon and Olympus. There is a big difference between the sensor resolutions of the 300D (6MP) and E-400 (10MP) and the 300D (APS-C) and E-400 (Four Thirds) provide totally different sensor measurements.

The 300D was introduced 4 years earlier than the E-400 which is quite a big gap as far as tech is concerned. Both the cameras feature the same body design (Compact SLR).

Before delving right into a complete comparison, here is a quick synopsis of how the 300D scores vs the E-400 in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Following is a sample of the gallery pictures for Canon EOS 300D and Olympus E-400. The whole galleries are provided at Canon 300D Gallery and Olympus E-400 Gallery.

For those who are aiming to travel with your camera often, you should factor in its weight and size.

In many cases, its tough to see the contrast between sensor dimensions only by reading specifications. The pic here might provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the 300D and E-400.

To sum up, the 2 cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The 300D having a larger sensor will make achieving bokeh simpler and the Olympus E-400 will offer you greater detail using its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop pics way more aggressively. The more aged 300D is going to be behind with regard to sensor technology.
