Canon M200 vs Panasonic GM1

Lets take a deeper look at the Canon M200 versus Panasonic GM1, both Entry-Level Mirrorless digital cameras by competitors Canon and Panasonic. There exists a sizable gap between the resolutions of the M200 (24MP) and GM1 (16MP) and the M200 (APS-C) and GM1 (Four Thirds) have totally different sensor measurements.

The M200 was introduced 5 years after the GM1 which is quite a significant difference as far as technology is concerned. The two cameras feature the same body design (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before getting right into a thorough comparison, here is a brief introduction of how the M200 matches up against the GM1 for portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

The following is a preview of the gallery images for Canon EOS M200 & Panasonic Lumix DMC-GM1. The whole galleries are available at Canon M200 Gallery & Panasonic GM1 Gallery.

For anybody who is intending to carry around your camera often, you will have to consider its weight and size.

Don't forget, the weight of an ILC will vary depending on the lens you select at that moment. Here is a front view scale comparison of the M200 against the GM1.

Looking at dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the M200 and GM1 is 88 and 93 respectively.

Typically, it is very tough to envision the gap between sensor sizes only by going over specifications. The image here will help provide you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the M200 and GM1.

To sum up, each of these cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The M200 using its bigger sensor will make achieving shallow depth of field easier and the Canon M200 will offer you more detail using its extra 8 Megapixels. Higher resolution will help you crop shots a good deal more aggressively. The younger M200 is going to have a benefit in sensor tech.
