Canon 1D MIV vs Canon 80D

Here is a in-depth analysis of the Canon 1D MIV vs Canon 80D, one being a Pro DSLR and the latter is a Advanced DSLR and they are both created by Canon. There exists a huge gap between the resolutions of the 1D MIV (16MP) and 80D (24MP) and the 1D MIV (APS-H) and 80D (APS-C) enjoy totally different sensor sizing.

The 1D MIV was revealed 7 years earlier than the 80D and that is quite a significant gap as far as technology is concerned. Both of the cameras come with different body type with the Canon 1D MIV being a Large SLR camera and the Canon 80D being a Mid-size SLR camera.

Before delving in to a detailed comparison, below is a concise summation of how the 1D MIV scores versus the 80D in regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Following is a preview of the gallery photos for Canon EOS-1D Mark IV and Canon EOS 80D. The full galleries are viewable at Canon 1D MIV Gallery and Canon 80D Gallery.

When you are going to carry your camera often, you will have to take into account its weight and dimensions. The Canon 1D MIV features physical dimensions of 156mm x 157mm x 80mm (6.1" x 6.2" x 3.1") having a weight of 1230 grams (2.71 lbs) whilst the Canon 80D has dimensions of 139mm x 105mm x 79mm (5.5" x 4.1" x 3.1") accompanied by a weight of 730 grams (1.61 lbs).

Remember that, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary dependant on the lens you choose during that time. Here is the front view physical size comparison of the 1D MIV vs the 80D.

Taking into consideration dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the 1D MIV and 80D is 51 and 59 respectively.

Typically, it is very tough to visualise the contrast between sensor sizing merely by going over specs. The photograph underneath should provide you a stronger sense of the sensor dimensions in the 1D MIV and 80D.

As you can plainly see, each of these cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The 1D MIV having a bigger sensor will make achieving shallow depth of field simpler and the Canon 80D will offer you extra detail because of its extra 8 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop shots much more aggressively. The older 1D MIV is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
