Canon SL3 vs Olympus FE-4000 Sensor Comparison

Quite often, its tough to imagine the difference in sensor sizes merely by researching specifications. The image here may give you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the SL3 and FE-4000.

Plainly, both cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The SL3 having a larger sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF simpler and the Canon SL3 will provide you with more detail because of its extra 12 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also let you crop photos far more aggressively. The more modern SL3 should have an advantage with regard to sensor innovation.
