Canon 90D vs Pentax K-7

Let's look a little more in depth at the Canon 90D versus Pentax K-7, both Advanced DSLR cameras by rivals Canon and Pentax. There exists a huge gap among the image resolutions of the 90D (33MP) and K-7 (15MP) but they enjoy the exact same sensor size (APS-C).

The 90D was introduced 10 years later than the K-7 and that is a fairly significant gap as far as camera technology is concerned. The two cameras come with the identical body type (Mid-size SLR).

Before getting straight into a complete comparison, below is a quick view of how the 90D matches up versus the K-7 when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

This is a sample of the gallery pictures for Canon EOS 90D and Pentax K-7. The whole galleries are available at Canon 90D Gallery and Pentax K-7 Gallery.

If you are aiming to lug around your camera, you need to consider its weight and measurements. The Canon 90D has got outer 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) while the Pentax K-7 has proportions of 131mm x 97mm x 73mm (5.2" x 3.8" x 2.9") with a weight of 750 grams (1.65 lbs).

Don't forget, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change dependant on the lens you choose at that moment. Below is the front view measurements comparison of the 90D against the K-7.

Taking into account dimensions and weight, the portability score of the 90D and K-7 is 60 and 60 respectively.

Normally, its hard to visualise the contrast in sensor measurements merely by checking out a spec sheet. The visual here will help provide you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the 90D and K-7.

As you can see, each of these cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Canon 90D to show greater detail using its extra 18MP. Greater resolution will help you crop images much more aggressively. The more modern 90D will have an advantage when it comes to sensor innovation.
