Canon 1D MII N vs Fujifilm X-A10

Its time to take a more detailed look at the Canon 1D MII N versus Fujifilm X-A10, one being a Pro DSLR and the other is a Entry-Level Mirrorless by manufacturers Canon and FujiFilm. There is a sizeable difference between the sensor resolutions of the 1D MII N (8MP) and Fujifilm X-A10 (16MP) and the 1D MII N (APS-H) and Fujifilm X-A10 (APS-C) provide totally different sensor sizes.

The 1D MII N was unveiled 12 years prior to the Fujifilm X-A10 and that is quite a large gap as far as tech is concerned. Each of the cameras have different body design with the Canon 1D MII N being a Large SLR camera and the Fujifilm X-A10 being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera.

Before delving right into a step-by-step comparison, here is a brief highlight of how the 1D MII N matches up vs the Fujifilm X-A10 when considering portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Here is a sample of the gallery pics for Canon EOS-1D Mark II N and Fujifilm X-A10. The full galleries are provided at Canon 1D MII N Gallery and Fujifilm X-A10 Gallery.

In case you're intending to lug around your camera regularly, you'll have to think about its weight and dimensions. The Canon 1D MII N enjoys physical dimensions of 156mm x 158mm x 80mm (6.1" x 6.2" x 3.1") with a weight of 1565 grams (3.45 lbs) while the Fujifilm X-A10 has dimensions of 117mm x 67mm x 40mm (4.6" x 2.6" x 1.6") accompanied by a weight of 331 grams (0.73 lbs).

Often, its difficult to visualise the contrast between sensor measurements simply by reading a spec sheet. The graphic here should give you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the 1D MII N and Fujifilm X-A10.

As you can see, both of these cameras have different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The 1D MII N with its larger sensor will make shooting shallow DOF less difficult and the Fujifilm X-A10 will offer you greater detail having an extra 8MP. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop images a bit more aggressively. The older 1D MII N is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
