Leica M Typ 240 vs Olympus E-P7

Let's examine more closely at the Leica M Typ 240 and Olympus E-P7, one being a Pro Mirrorless and the latter is a Entry-Level Mirrorless by competitors Leica and Olympus. The image resolution of the M Typ 240 (24MP) and the E-P7 (20MP) is relatively well matched but the M Typ 240 (Full frame) and E-P7 (Four Thirds) use totally different sensor size.

The M Typ 240 was revealed 9 years prior to the E-P7 and that is quite a sizable gap as far as tech is concerned. Both of these cameras offer the identical body type (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before going in to a comprehensive comparison, below is a brief highlight of how the M Typ 240 matches up versus the E-P7 for portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Take into account, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ dependant on the lens you choose at that moment. Underneath is the front view measurements comparison of the M Typ 240 compared to the E-P7.

Factoring in size and weight, the portability score of the M Typ 240 and E-P7 is 74 and 86 respectively.

Generally, it can be difficult to see the difference between sensor sizing simply by reading through specifications. The visual underneath should give you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the M Typ 240 and E-P7.

Plainly, both of the cameras enjoy different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The M Typ 240 with its bigger sensor will make achieving shallow DOF simpler and the Leica M Typ 240 will give extra detail because of its extra 4MP. Higher resolution will let you crop photographs far more aggressively. The older M Typ 240 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
