Olympus TG-320 vs Sony A6000

Here is a complete review of the Olympus TG-320 and Sony A6000, one being a Waterproof and the latter is a Advanced Mirrorless by competitors Olympus and Sony. There exists a sizeable gap among the image resolutions of the TG-320 (14MP) and A6000 (24MP) and the TG-320 (1/2.3") and A6000 (APS-C) feature different sensor measurements.

The TG-320 was unveiled 3 years earlier than the A6000 and that is a fairly large gap as far as camera technology is concerned. The two cameras come with different body type with the Olympus TG-320 being a Compact camera and the Sony A6000 being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera.

Before getting in to a complete comparison, below is a concise introduction of how the TG-320 matches up versus the A6000 with regard to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

The following is a preview of the gallery photos for Olympus TG-320 and Sony Alpha a6000. The full galleries are provided at Olympus TG-320 Gallery and Sony A6000 Gallery.

For those who are going to carry your camera, you'll need to factor its weight and proportions.

Always remember, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary based on the lens you select at the time. The following is the front view measurement comparison of the TG-320 versus the A6000.

Using dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the TG-320 and A6000 is 94 and 85 respectively.

Normally, its difficult to imagine the difference in sensor sizing merely by going through specifications. The visual below should offer you a greater sense of the sensor dimensions in the TG-320 and A6000.

To sum up, both of those cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The TG-320 with its smaller sensor is going to make shooting bokeh more difficult and the Sony A6000 will provide extra detail having an extra 10 Megapixels. Higher resolution will allow you to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The older TG-320 will be behind in sensor innovation.
