The 90D was brought out 14 years after the E-300 which is a fairly big gap as far as camera technology is concerned. The two cameras offer the identical body type (Mid-size SLR).

Before diving through a detailed comparison, below is a quick highlight of how the 90D matches up against the E-300 in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Below is a sample of the gallery pictures for Canon EOS 90D and Olympus E-300. The entire galleries are viewable at Canon 90D Gallery and Olympus E-300 Gallery.

For anybody who is aiming to travel with your camera often, you will want to consider its weight and proportions.

Normally, it can be difficult to envision the difference in sensor dimensions purely by seeing a spec sheet. The image underneath might give you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the 90D and E-300.

Clearly, both cameras offer different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The 90D featuring a larger sensor will make getting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Canon 90D will show more detail having its extra 25 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop pics a little more aggressively. The newer 90D is going to have an edge with regard to sensor tech.
