Canon 700D vs Olympus E-450 Sensor Comparison

As you can plainly see, the two cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The 700D having a bigger sensor will make shooting bokeh less difficult and the Canon 700D will give greater detail having an extra 8MP. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The more modern 700D is going to have an edge when it comes to sensor innovation.
