Casio EX-FC100 vs Canon 700D Comparison Overview

Here we are comparing two cameras with different body types: Casio EX-FC100, which was introduced in January 2009 is a Small Sensor Compact camera with a 9.0MP 1/2.3-inch sensor whereas Canon 700D, which was introduced in June 2013 is a Entry-Level DSLR camera with a 18.0MP APS-C sensor. As you can see, EX-FC100 is 4 years older than 700D. Let's see if this age difference between two cameras makes a big difference.

Comparing a DSLR camera to a Fixed Lens camera is not an easy task but we will do our best to make this a fair comparison.

Here is a brief look at the main features of Casio EX-FC100 and Canon 700D before getting into our more detailed comparison.

Casio EX-FC100 vs Canon 700D: Physical Specs and Body features Comparison

Size and weight is a big decision factor when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs. In this section, We are going to illustrate Casio EX-FC100 and Canon 700D side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Casio EX-FC100 has external dimensions of 100 x 59 x 23 mm (3.94 x 2.32 x 0.91″) and weighs 156 g (0.34 lb / 5.50 oz) (including batteries). Canon 700D has external dimensions of 133 x 100 x 79 mm (5.24 x 3.94 x 3.11″) and weighs 580 g (1.28 lb / 20.46 oz) (including batteries).

Below you can see the front view size comparison of Casio EX-FC100 and Canon 700D. Casio EX-FC100 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 33mm narrower, 41mm shorter and 56mm thinner than Canon 700D. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Casio EX-FC100 has a built-in lens but Canon 700D doesn't. Once you put a lens on 700D, its thickness will increase significantly.

Here is the back view size comparison of Casio EX-FC100 and Canon 700D.

Weight is another important factor especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day. Casio EX-FC100 is significantly lighter (424g ) than the Canon 700D which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.

Again, this comparison may not be very useful in real life as we are comparing the weight of a camera with a built-in lens to the body-only weight of an interchangeable lens camera. Once you put a lens on 700D, the total kit will weigh much higher.

Weather Sealing

Unfortunately neither Casio Exilim EX-FC100 nor Canon EOS 700D (EOS Rebel T5i) provides any type of weather sealing in their body, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors. If weather sealing is a must-have feature for you, check these sections:

Top DSLR Cameras with Weather Sealing

LCD Screen Size and Features

Canon 700D's 3" LCD screen is slightly larger than Casio EX-FC100's 2.7" screen.

Moreover, Canon 700D sports a Fully Articulated screen which you can change the angle and position of the screen almost freely, making it possible to shoot from waist or over the head levels, and especially very useful for shooting selfies and video. On the other hand, Casio EX-FC100 has a fixed type screen which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to 700D.
Casio EX-FC100 vs Canon 700D: Sensor Comparison

Casio EX-FC100 has a 9.0MP 1/2.3-inch (6.17 x 4.55 mm ) sized CMOS sensor . On the other hand, Canon 700D has a 18.0MP APS-C (22.3 x 14.9 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Digic 5 processor.

Canon 700D's sensor provides 9MP more than Casio EX-FC100's sensor, which gives a significant advantage in real life. You can print your images larger or crop more freely. On the other hand, please keep in mind that Max sensor resolution is not the only determinant of resolving power. Factors such as the optical elements, low pass filter, pixel size and sensor technology also affects the final resolution of the captured image.

Below you can see the EX-FC100 and 700D sensor size comparison.

Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Casio EX-FC100 and Canon 700D Cameras


As seen above, Canon 700D has a 11.8x Larger sensor area than Casio EX-FC100. Larger sensors give photographer more control on the depth of field and blurry background compared to smaller sensor when shot in same focal length and aperture.
