The 1D X was brought out 5 years prior to the 1D X II and that is quite a sizable gap as far as technology is concerned. Each of the cameras feature the same body design (Large SLR).

Before getting straight to a full comparison, here is a short overview of how the 1D X scores against the 1D X II with regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

The following is a sample of the gallery pictures for Canon EOS-1D X and Canon EOS-1D X Mark II. The entire galleries are provided at Canon 1D X Gallery and Canon 1D X II Gallery.

Remember that, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ depending on the lens you are utilizing at that time. The following is a front view size comparison of the 1D X against the 1D X II.

Considering dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the 1D X and 1D X II is 50 and 50 respectively.

Typically, it can be hard to see the gap between sensor sizing merely by reviewing specs. The graphic underneath might offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the 1D X and 1D X II.

As you can plainly see, both cameras feature the identical sensor size but not the same resolution. You should anticipate the Canon 1D X II to deliver greater detail having its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also help you crop images way more aggressively. The older 1D X is going to be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
