Often, it is difficult to picture the difference in sensor sizes just by checking out a spec sheet. The picture underneath may give you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the 1D C and D200.

As you can see, both of the cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The 1D C having a bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallow DOF less difficult and the Canon 1D C will produce greater detail because of its extra 8 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The more recent 1D C should have an advantage with regard to sensor tech.
