Canon 90D vs Nikon D90

Its time to look a bit more in depth at the Canon 90D versus Nikon D90, both Advanced DSLR cameras by competitors Canon and Nikon. There is a huge difference among the resolutions of the 90D (33MP) and D90 (12MP) but both cameras provide the same sensor sizes (APS-C).

The 90D was manufactured 11 years after the D90 which is a fairly significant gap as far as camera tech is concerned. Each of the cameras have the same body design (Mid-size SLR).

Before we go into a thorough comparison, here is a brief synopsis of how the 90D matches up vs the D90 with regard to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Here is a preview of the gallery photos for Canon EOS 90D and Nikon D90. The entire galleries are available at Canon 90D Gallery and Nikon D90 Gallery.

If you are planning to travel with your camera often, you are going to need to factor its weight and volume. The Canon 90D features outside measurements of 141mm x 105mm x 77mm (5.6" x 4.1" x 3.0") along with a weight of 701 grams (1.55 lbs) whilst the Nikon D90 has sizing of 132mm x 103mm x 77mm (5.2" x 4.1" x 3.0") accompanied by a weight of 703 grams (1.55 lbs).

In many cases, it can be difficult to picture the difference in sensor dimensions just by looking through specifications. The picture here should give you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the 90D and D90.

Plainly, both of those cameras provide the same sensor dimensions albeit different megapixels. You should count on the Canon 90D to render more detail due to its extra 21 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop photographs more aggressively. The younger 90D should have an edge when it comes to sensor tech.
