Canon 1D X vs Fujifilm S5 Pro

Below, we will be matching up the Canon 1D X vs Fujifilm S5 Pro, both Pro DSLR digital cameras by competitors Canon and FujiFilm. There exists a big gap between the image resolutions of the 1D X (18MP) and Fujifilm S5 Pro (6MP) and the 1D X (Full frame) and Fujifilm S5 Pro (APS-C) feature totally different sensor measurements.

The 1D X was unveiled 4 years after the Fujifilm S5 Pro which is quite a big gap as far as technology is concerned. The two cameras come with the identical body type (Large SLR).

Before getting in to a detailed comparison, below is a simple synopsis of how the 1D X matches up vs the Fujifilm S5 Pro with regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

This is a preview of the gallery photos for Canon EOS-1D X and Fujifilm FinePix S5 Pro. The full galleries are available at Canon 1D X Gallery and Fujifilm S5 Pro Gallery.

For anybody who is going to travel with your camera, you'll have to factor in its weight and measurements. The Canon 1D X has got external dimensions of 158mm x 164mm x 83mm (6.2" x 6.5" x 3.3") along with a weight of 1340 grams (2.95 lbs) while the Fujifilm S5 Pro has proportions of 147mm x 113mm x 74mm (5.8" x 4.4" x 2.9") with a weight of 920 grams (2.03 lbs).

Always remember, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary dependant on the lens you choose at that time. Underneath is the front view measurements comparison of the 1D X vs the Fujifilm S5 Pro.

Taking into consideration dimensions and weight, the portability score of the 1D X and Fujifilm S5 Pro is 50 and 55 respectively.

Typically, it's difficult to visualise the difference between sensor dimensions only by going over a spec sheet. The pic here might offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the 1D X and Fujifilm S5 Pro.

Clearly, each of the cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The 1D X using its bigger sensor will make shooting shallow DOF less difficult and the Canon 1D X will offer you extra detail having an extra 12MP. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop photographs somewhat more aggressively. The more modern 1D X will have an advantage in sensor innovation.
