As you can plainly see, the two cameras offer different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The D20 due to its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field more difficult and the Canon D20 will give you extra detail as a result of its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop shots a little more aggressively. The more aged D20 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
