Canon 4000D vs Olympus E-400

Here, we are looking at the Canon 4000D versus Olympus E-400, both Entry-Level DSLR cameras by manufacturers Canon and Olympus. There is a crucial difference among the resolutions of the 4000D (18MP) and E-400 (10MP) and the 4000D (APS-C) and E-400 (Four Thirds) posses totally different sensor measurements.

The 4000D was announced 11 years later than the E-400 and that is a fairly serious gap as far as camera tech is concerned. Each of the cameras feature the same body design (Compact SLR).

Before we go into a complete comparison, here is a simple overview of how the 4000D matches up vs the E-400 in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

The following is a sample of the gallery pictures for Canon EOS 4000D and Olympus E-400. The whole galleries are viewable at Canon 4000D Gallery and Olympus E-400 Gallery.

If you're planning to lug around your camera, you'll need to factor its weight and volume.

Usually, its hard to visualise the contrast in sensor measurements only by looking through specifications. The photograph underneath will offer you a better sense of the sensor sizes in the 4000D and E-400.

To sum up, both of those cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The 4000D having a larger sensor will make getting shallower depth of field less difficult and the Canon 4000D will result in more detail with its extra 8 Megapixels. Greater resolution will allow you to crop images way more aggressively. The younger 4000D will have a benefit in sensor innovation.
