Olympus E-30 vs Olympus E-300

Here, we are reviewing the Olympus E-30 and Olympus E-300, both Advanced DSLR cameras and they are both sold by Olympus. There exists a large gap among the resolutions of the E-30 (12MP) and E-300 (8MP) but both cameras boast the identical sensor measurements (Four Thirds).

The E-30 was brought out 4 years after the E-300 which is a fairly serious difference as far as camera technology is concerned. Both cameras feature the same body design (Mid-size SLR).

Before getting into a in depth comparison, here is a simple introduction of how the E-30 matches up versus the E-300 in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Here is a sample of the gallery pictures for Olympus E-30 & Olympus E-300. The entire galleries are provided at Olympus E-30 Gallery & Olympus E-300 Gallery.

Keep in mind, the weight of an ILC will change based on the lens you are utilising at that time. The following is a front view dimension comparison of the E-30 versus the E-300.

Factoring in dimensions and weight, the portability score of the E-30 and E-300 is 60 and 67 respectively.

Typically, it can be hard to visualise the contrast in sensor dimensions simply by looking through specifications. The pic here might offer you a greater sense of the sensor dimensions in the E-30 and E-300.

To sum up, each of the cameras feature the identical sensor size but not the same megapixels. You can anticipate the Olympus E-30 to result in extra detail having its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will allow you to crop pics way more aggressively. The newer E-30 is going to have an edge in sensor technology.
