Canon 80D vs Samsung SL820 Sensor Comparison

Sometimes, it is very tough to envision the contrast in sensor sizes purely by researching specifications. The picture underneath might provide you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the 80D and SL820.

Plainly, both of those cameras provide different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The 80D using its bigger sensor will make getting shallower depth of field less difficult and the Canon 80D will render more detail because of its extra 12MP. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop shots more aggressively. The younger 80D will have a benefit in sensor technology.
