The 5D MII was announced 3 years prior to the Fujifilm F750EXR and that is a fairly large gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Each of these cameras have different body design with the Canon 5D MII being a Mid-size SLR camera and the Fujifilm F750EXR being a Compact camera.

Before we go right into a full comparison, here is a concise overview of how the 5D MII grades versus the Fujifilm F750EXR in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

The following is a preview of the gallery photos for Canon EOS 5D Mark II and Fujifilm FinePix F750EXR. The whole galleries are available at Canon 5D MII Gallery and Fujifilm F750EXR Gallery.

If you are intending to carry your camera often, you'll need to take into account its weight and measurements.

Sometimes, it's difficult to envision the difference in sensor sizing only by researching technical specs. The graphic underneath should give you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the 5D MII and Fujifilm F750EXR.

As you have seen, both of the cameras have different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The 5D MII having a bigger sensor will make getting shallower DOF less difficult and the Canon 5D MII will result in extra detail with its extra 5MP. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop pictures a bit more aggressively. The older 5D MII will be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
