The 5D MII was brought out 4 years after the SD10 which is quite a significant gap as far as technology is concerned. Both of these cameras feature the same body design (Mid-size SLR).

Before getting right into a full comparison, here is a concise summation of how the 5D MII matches up against the SD10 in regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

Following is a preview of the gallery photos for Canon EOS 5D Mark II and Sigma SD10. The entire galleries are viewable at Canon 5D MII Gallery and Sigma SD10 Gallery.

If you are intending to carry around your camera, you have to factor in its weight and proportions.

Taking into consideration dimensions and weight, the portability score of the 5D MII and SD10 is 56 and 54 respectively.

Normally, it's difficult to imagine the contrast between sensor sizes just by looking at technical specs. The pic underneath might give you a better sense of the sensor sizing in the 5D MII and SD10.

As you can tell, both of those cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The 5D MII featuring a bigger sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field easier and the Canon 5D MII will give you more detail having its extra 18MP. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop pictures way more aggressively. The fresher 5D MII provides an edge with regard to sensor innovation.
