Canon M200 vs Olympus E-P7 Sensor Comparison

Usually, it can be difficult to see the gap between sensor sizes simply by looking at specs. The picture here will provide you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the M200 and E-P7.

All in all, both of the cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The M200 because of its bigger sensor will make achieving shallower DOF easier and the Canon M200 will resolve extra detail due to its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The more aged M200 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
