Olympus E-400 vs Olympus TG-320

Here, we will be matching up the Olympus E-400 versus Olympus TG-320, one is a Entry-Level DSLR and the latter is a Waterproof and they are both manufactured by Olympus. There exists a sizeable gap among the image resolutions of the E-400 (10MP) and TG-320 (14MP) and the E-400 (Four Thirds) and TG-320 (1/2.3") offer different sensor sizes.

The E-400 was released 6 years before the TG-320 which is a fairly large gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Both of the cameras feature different body design with the Olympus E-400 being a Compact SLR camera and the Olympus TG-320 being a Compact camera.

Before going straight to a detailed comparison, here is a short highlight of how the E-400 matches up versus the TG-320 with regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

Here is a preview of the gallery photos for Olympus E-400 and Olympus TG-320. The complete galleries are available at Olympus E-400 Gallery and Olympus TG-320 Gallery.

If you're going to carry around your camera regularly, you are going to need to think about its weight and proportions. The Olympus E-400 offers exterior measurements of 130mm x 91mm x 53mm (5.1" x 3.6" x 2.1") accompanied by a weight of 435 grams (0.96 lbs) and the Olympus TG-320 has measurements of 96mm x 63mm x 23mm (3.8" x 2.5" x 0.9") accompanied by a weight of 155 grams (0.34 lbs).

Take into consideration, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change depending on the lens you have during that time. Underneath is a front view physical size comparison of the E-400 and the TG-320.

Using dimensions and weight, the portability score of the E-400 and TG-320 is 77 and 94 respectively.

More often than not, it is very hard to imagine the contrast in sensor sizes purely by going through a spec sheet. The picture below may provide you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the E-400 and TG-320.

Clearly, both of those cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The E-400 because of its bigger sensor is going to make achieving bokeh easier and the Olympus TG-320 will produce greater detail as a result of its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also let you crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The more aged E-400 will be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
