Pentax 645D vs Sony H200

Lets look a bit more closely at the Pentax 645D vs Sony H200, one being a Pro DSLR and the latter is a Small Sensor Superzoom by brands Pentax and Sony. There is a significant difference between the sensor resolutions of the 645D (40MP) and H200 (20MP) and the 645D (Medium format) and H200 (1/2.3") boast different sensor dimensions.

The 645D was revealed 3 years before the H200 and that is quite a sizable gap as far as tech is concerned. The two cameras have different body design with the Pentax 645D being a Large SLR camera and the Sony H200 being a SLR-like (bridge) camera.

Before we go into a thorough comparison, here is a brief introduction of how the 645D scores against the H200 when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Below is a preview of the gallery photos for Pentax 645D and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H200. The full galleries are available at Pentax 645D Gallery and Sony H200 Gallery.

In case you're aiming to carry your camera regularly, you will have to think about its weight and volume. The Pentax 645D has outer measurements of 156mm x 117mm x 119mm (6.1" x 4.6" x 4.7") along with a weight of 1480 grams (3.26 lbs) whilst the Sony H200 has sizing of 123mm x 83mm x 87mm (4.8" x 3.3" x 3.4") along with a weight of 530 grams (1.17 lbs).

Always remember, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change based on the lens you are utilising at the time. The following is a front view physical size comparison of the 645D and the H200.

Taking into account size and weight, the portability rating of the 645D and H200 is 50 and 67 respectively.

In many cases, it is tough to visualize the gap between sensor sizing just by checking technical specs. The visual here may give you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the 645D and H200.

As you can tell, both cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The 645D using its bigger sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Pentax 645D will give you extra detail because of its extra 20MP. Higher resolution will enable you to crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The older 645D is going to be behind in sensor tech.
