Canon D20 vs Olympus TG-810 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Often, its tough to imagine the contrast in sensor measurements purely by going through specifications. The visual below might offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the D20 and TG-810.
Plainly, both of the cameras provide the same sensor dimensions but different resolution. You can anticipate the Olympus TG-810 to show more detail having its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop pics more aggressively. The newer D20 should have an edge in sensor technology.
