Pentax K110D vs Sony H20

Let's look more closely at the Pentax K110D and Sony H20, former is a Entry-Level DSLR while the other is a Small Sensor Compact by companies Pentax and Sony. There exists a large gap between the image resolutions of the K110D (6MP) and H20 (10MP) and the K110D (APS-C) and H20 (1/2.3") offer different sensor measurements.

Typically, it's hard to visualize the difference between sensor sizes purely by reading technical specs. The image here may offer you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the K110D and H20.

As you have seen, both of these cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The K110D because of its larger sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field less difficult and the Sony H20 will offer greater detail as a result of its extra 4MP. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The more aged K110D is going to be behind in sensor innovation.
