Canon 1D C vs Canon 1D MII N Sensor Comparison
Sometimes, it is very difficult to imagine the difference between sensor dimensions simply by reading through a spec sheet. The image underneath will provide you a stronger sense of the sensor dimensions in the 1D C and 1D MII N.
Clearly, each of these cameras offer different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The 1D C because of its larger sensor is going to make shooting shallow DOF easier and the Canon 1D C will resolve greater detail due to its extra 10MP. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop pics a little more aggressively. The newer 1D C should have an advantage when it comes to sensor tech.
