Canon 200D Vs. Sony A6300

Best Budget Video Camera Comparison

Here we are comparing two cameras with different body types: Canon 200D, which was introduced in June 2017 is a Beginner Level DSLR camera with a 24.0MP APS-C sensor whereas Sony A6300, which was introduced in February 2016 is a Semi-Pro Mirrorless camera with a 24.0MP APS-C sensor. There is a less difference between 200D and A6300 so we are expecting this to be a fair review regarding age and technology level.

Despite some fundamental differences of these two body types, Mirrorless cameras are becoming serious alternatives to DSLR cameras thanks to their size/weight advantages and recent improvements in their focus speeds , which makes this comparison even more interesting.

Let’s have a brief look at the main features of Canon SL2 and Sony A6300 before getting into our more detailed comparison.
