Canon T8i vs Kodak M530

In this write-up, we are looking at the Canon T8i versus Kodak M530, one being a Entry-Level DSLR and the other is a Small Sensor Compact by companies Canon and Kodak. There is a big difference between the resolutions of the T8i (24MP) and M530 (12MP) and the T8i (APS-C) and M530 (1/2.3") come with totally different sensor size.

The T8i was announced 10 years later than the M530 and that is quite a big gap as far as tech is concerned. The two cameras offer different body type with the Canon T8i being a Compact SLR camera and the Kodak M530 being a Compact camera.

Before we go in to a step-by-step comparison, below is a quick introduction of how the T8i scores versus the M530 in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Here is a sample of the gallery pictures for Canon EOS Rebel T8i and Kodak EasyShare M530. The whole galleries are provided at Canon T8i Gallery and Kodak M530 Gallery.

If you are going to carry your camera frequently, you'll have to take into account its weight and proportions. The Canon T8i features exterior dimensions of 131mm x 103mm x 76mm (5.2" x 4.1" x 3.0") along with a weight of 515 grams (1.14 lbs) whilst the Kodak M530 has measurements of 94mm x 57mm x 23mm (3.7" x 2.2" x 0.9") with a weight of 150 grams (0.33 lbs).

Take into account, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change depending on the lens you are using at that time. Underneath is the front view sizing comparison of the T8i against the M530.

Using size and weight, the portability rating of the T8i and M530 is 67 and 95 respectively.

Oftentimes, it is very hard to see the contrast between sensor sizing only by reading technical specs. The visual here may give you a greater sense of the sensor dimensions in the T8i and M530.

As you can tell, both cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The T8i having a larger sensor will make achieving shallow DOF less difficult and the Canon T8i will offer extra detail with its extra 12MP. Greater resolution can also help you crop photos far more aggressively. The more recent T8i will have an advantage when it comes to sensor technology.
