Canon M200 vs Canon SX520 HS

Lets look much closer at the Canon M200 vs Canon SX520 HS, former being a Entry-Level Mirrorless while the latter is a Small Sensor Superzoom and both are manufactured by Canon. There is a noticeable difference between the image resolutions of the M200 (24MP) and SX520 HS (16MP) and the M200 (APS-C) and SX520 HS (1/2.3") come with totally different sensor sizing.

The M200 was announced 5 years later than the SX520 HS and that is quite a sizable difference as far as tech is concerned. Both the cameras come with different body type with the Canon M200 being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera and the Canon SX520 HS being a Compact camera.

Before delving straight into a in-depth comparison, below is a quick view of how the M200 scores versus the SX520 HS in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Always remember, the weight of an ILC will differ depending on the lens you are utilising at the time. Below is the front view over all size comparison of the M200 compared to the SX520 HS.

Taking into account size and weight, the portability score of the M200 and SX520 HS is 88 and 69 respectively.

Often, it can be difficult to see the contrast between sensor measurements purely by going over a spec sheet. The photograph below might provide you a greater sense of the sensor dimensions in the M200 and SX520 HS.

Clearly, the two cameras have got different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The M200 having a bigger sensor will make shooting shallow depth of field simpler and the Canon M200 will deliver greater detail with its extra 8MP. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop pictures much more aggressively. The newer M200 is going to have an edge when it comes to sensor tech.
