Sometimes, it is difficult to imagine the gap between sensor measurements only by reviewing specifications. The graphic here will help give you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the 1D MII N and Fujifilm S1 Pro.

To sum up, each of these cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The 1D MII N because of its larger sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF simpler and the Canon 1D MII N will deliver greater detail as a result of its extra 5MP. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop images way more aggressively. The younger 1D MII N should have an advantage when it comes to sensor tech.
