The 6D MII was launched 11 years later than the E-330 and that is quite a significant gap as far as technology is concerned. Both the cameras feature the same body design (Mid-size SLR).

Before diving straight to a in-depth comparison, here is a concise summary of how the 6D MII scores versus the E-330 with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

The following is a preview of the gallery images for Canon EOS 6D Mark II and Olympus E-330. The complete galleries are provided at Canon 6D MII Gallery and Olympus E-330 Gallery.

If you're going to lug around your camera frequently, you should consider its weight and measurements.

Taking into account dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the 6D MII and E-330 is 59 and 65 respectively.

Sometimes, it can be tough to envision the difference between sensor measurements simply by going over technical specs. The visual here may give you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the 6D MII and E-330.

As you can tell, both of those cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The 6D MII due to its bigger sensor will make getting shallow depth of field easier and the Canon 6D MII will offer greater detail utilizing its extra 19MP. Higher resolution will also help you crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The more modern 6D MII will have a benefit in sensor technology.
