Canon 700D vs Pentax K-70

Below, we will be analyzing the Canon 700D vs Pentax K-70, both Entry-Level DSLR digital cameras by rivals Canon and Pentax. There is a crucial difference between the sensor resolutions of the 700D (18MP) and K-70 (24MP) but they come with the exact same sensor size (APS-C).

The 700D was released 4 years earlier than the K-70 and that is quite a serious gap as far as tech is concerned. Each of these cameras come with the identical body type (Compact SLR).

Before getting straight into a full comparison, below is a quick summation of how the 700D scores versus the K-70 in regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Here is a preview of the gallery images for Canon EOS 700D and Pentax K-70. The complete galleries are available at Canon 700D Gallery and Pentax K-70 Gallery.

For those who are intending to lug around your camera regularly, you are going to need to take into account its weight and size.

Take into consideration, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ dependant on the lens you are using at that time. The following is the front view size comparison of the 700D compared to the K-70.

Looking at size and weight, the portability rating of the 700D and K-70 is 65 and 62 respectively.

Generally, its hard to visualise the contrast between sensor measurements purely by reading through specs. The graphic underneath may offer you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the 700D and K-70.

All in all, both cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same MP. You should expect the Pentax K-70 to give you extra detail as a result of its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The older 700D is going to be behind in sensor innovation.
