Pentax K110D vs Sony H400

In this write-up, we will be evaluating the Pentax K110D versus Sony H400, one being a Entry-Level DSLR and the latter is a Small Sensor Superzoom by brands Pentax and Sony. There exists a big gap between the resolutions of the K110D (6MP) and H400 (20MP) and the K110D (APS-C) and H400 (1/2.3") use different sensor size.

The K110D was introduced 8 years prior to the H400 and that is quite a big gap as far as technology is concerned. Both the cameras offer different body type with the Pentax K110D being a Compact SLR camera and the Sony H400 being a SLR-like (bridge) camera.

Before getting in to a complete comparison, below is a concise view of how the K110D matches up versus the H400 in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Below is a preview of the gallery photos for Pentax K110D and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H400. The whole galleries are available at Pentax K110D Gallery and Sony H400 Gallery.

For anyone who is going to lug around your camera regularly, you are going to need to factor its weight and proportions.

Take into consideration, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary dependant on the lens you have chosen during that time. Underneath is the front view measurement comparison of the K110D compared to the H400.

Looking at dimensions and weight, the portability score of the K110D and H400 is 67 and 62 respectively.

Typically, it can be hard to picture the difference between sensor measurements just by checking technical specs. The graphic underneath should provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the K110D and H400.

As you can tell, the 2 cameras offer different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The K110D using its bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field less difficult and the Sony H400 will give you more detail using its extra 14MP. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop pictures a little more aggressively. The older K110D is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
