Canon 400D vs Sigma fp

Here, we will be comparing the Canon 400D and Sigma fp, former being a Entry-Level DSLR while the latter is a Advanced Mirrorless by companies Canon and Sigma. There exists a substantial gap between the image resolutions of the 400D (10MP) and fp (25MP) and the 400D (APS-C) and fp (Full frame) offer totally different sensor sizes.

The 400D was released 13 years prior to the fp and that is quite a big difference as far as technology is concerned. Both the cameras feature different body design with the Canon 400D being a Compact SLR camera and the Sigma fp being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera.

Before delving straight to a more detailed comparison, here is a brief introduction of how the 400D grades versus the fp in regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Below is a preview of the gallery photos for Canon EOS 400D & Sigma fp. The complete galleries are available at Canon 400D Gallery & Sigma fp Gallery.

When you are going to lug around your camera often, you will want to think about its weight and volume. The Canon 400D offers physical dimensions of 127mm x 94mm x 65mm (5.0" x 3.7" x 2.6") and a weight of 556 grams (1.23 lbs) whilst the Sigma fp has sizing of 113mm x 70mm x 45mm (4.4" x 2.8" x 1.8") accompanied by a weight of 422 grams (0.93 lbs).

Remember that, the weight of an ILC will change depending on the lens you are utilising at that time. Here is a front view measurement comparison of the 400D and the fp.

Considering dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the 400D and fp is 69 and 84 respectively.

Normally, it's hard to envision the contrast between sensor measurements simply by going over specs. The graphic here might offer you a clearer sense of the sensor sizes in the 400D and fp.

As you can plainly see, both cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The 400D featuring a tinier sensor will make getting shallow depth of field more difficult and the Sigma fp will offer greater detail as a result of its extra 15 Megapixels. Higher resolution will help you crop shots way more aggressively. The older 400D is going to be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
