Canon 77D vs Olympus E-5

Let's look more closely at the Canon 77D and Olympus E-5, former being a Entry-Level DSLR while the other is a Advanced DSLR by companies Canon and Olympus. There exists a sizable gap among the image resolutions of the 77D (24MP) and E-5 (12MP) and the 77D (APS-C) and E-5 (Four Thirds) enjoy different sensor sizes.

The 77D was unveiled 6 years later than the E-5 and that is a fairly significant difference as far as camera technology is concerned. The two cameras offer the identical body type (Mid-size SLR).

Before we go in to a more detailed comparison, below is a short introduction of how the 77D matches up against the E-5 in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Here is a sample of the gallery pics for Canon EOS 77D & Olympus E-5. The full galleries are viewable at Canon 77D Gallery & Olympus E-5 Gallery.

For those who are aiming to carry your camera, you're going to have to consider its weight and measurements. The Canon 77D enjoys outer dimensions of 131mm x 100mm x 76mm (5.2" x 3.9" x 3.0") and a weight of 540 grams (1.19 lbs) whilst the Olympus E-5 has proportions of 143mm x 117mm x 75mm (5.6" x 4.6" x 3.0") and a weight of 800 grams (1.76 lbs).

Don't forget, the weight of an ILC will differ depending on the lens you are utilising at that time. Underneath is the front view over all size comparison of the 77D vs the E-5.

Taking into account dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the 77D and E-5 is 66 and 58 respectively.

Quite often, it is very tough to visualize the difference in sensor sizing simply by researching specs. The visual underneath will help offer you a clearer sense of the sensor sizes in the 77D and E-5.

As you can plainly see, both of these cameras offer different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The 77D using its larger sensor is going to make achieving bokeh less difficult and the Canon 77D will result in greater detail having an extra 12 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop images a little more aggressively. The more modern 77D should have an edge with regard to sensor technology.
