Olympus E-M10 vs Sony H200

Here is a thorough review of the Olympus E-M10 and Sony H200, one being a Entry-Level Mirrorless and the latter is a Small Sensor Superzoom by rivals Olympus and Sony. The resolution of the E-M10 (16MP) and the H200 (20MP) is relatively well matched but the E-M10 (Four Thirds) and H200 (1/2.3") feature totally different sensor dimensions.

The E-M10 was introduced 15 months later than the H200 which makes the cameras a generation apart from each other. The two cameras offer different body type with the Olympus E-M10 being a SLR-style mirrorless camera and the Sony H200 being a SLR-like (bridge) camera.

Before delving through a step-by-step comparison, below is a quick view of how the E-M10 matches up versus the H200 when considering portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Bear in mind, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change depending on the lens you select at that moment. Following is the front view physical size comparison of the E-M10 versus the H200.

Considering size and weight, the portability score of the E-M10 and H200 is 82 and 67 respectively.

Oftentimes, it is very hard to envision the difference between sensor sizing just by checking a spec sheet. The photograph below might provide you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the E-M10 and H200.

Clearly, each of these cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The E-M10 having a bigger sensor will make getting shallower depth of field easier and the Sony H200 will give more detail using its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also let you crop photographs far more aggressively. The younger E-M10 is going to have an advantage in sensor tech.
