The 400D was revealed 9 years before the X (Typ 113) and that is quite a big gap as far as tech is concerned. Both of these cameras offer different body type with the Canon 400D being a Compact SLR camera and the Leica X (Typ 113) being a Large Sensor Compact camera.

Before delving in to a thorough comparison, below is a simple overview of how the 400D matches up against the X (Typ 113) with regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

The following is a preview of the gallery photos for Canon EOS 400D and Leica X. The full galleries are viewable at Canon 400D Gallery and Leica X (Typ 113) Gallery.

Usually, it can be difficult to see the difference between sensor measurements simply by reviewing specifications. The graphic below will give you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the 400D and X (Typ 113).

Plainly, each of the cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same megapixels. You should count on the Leica X (Typ 113) to deliver greater detail because of its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop shots far more aggressively. The older 400D is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
