Olympus E-M10 IV vs Sony H200

Its time to look closer at the Olympus E-M10 IV versus Sony H200, one being a Entry-Level Mirrorless and the latter is a Small Sensor Superzoom by companies Olympus and Sony. The image resolution of the E-M10 IV (20MP) and the H200 (20MP) is relatively well matched but the E-M10 IV (Four Thirds) and H200 (1/2.3") enjoy different sensor size.

The E-M10 IV was revealed 7 years later than the H200 and that is quite a serious gap as far as tech is concerned. Both of the cameras offer different body type with the Olympus E-M10 IV being a SLR-style mirrorless camera and the Sony H200 being a SLR-like (bridge) camera.

Before diving in to a full comparison, below is a concise highlight of how the E-M10 IV matches up vs the H200 in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Here is a preview of the gallery photos for Olympus OM-D E-M10 IV and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H200. The full galleries are available at Olympus E-M10 IV Gallery and Sony H200 Gallery.

Usually, it is difficult to visualize the difference between sensor sizing merely by looking at a spec sheet. The photograph here will give you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the E-M10 IV and H200.

Clearly, both of those cameras offer the same exact resolution albeit different sensor sizing. The E-M10 IV includes the bigger sensor which is going to make achieving shallow DOF easier. The more recent E-M10 IV should have a benefit in sensor tech.
