Canon 5D MIV vs Fujifilm S4500

Its time to look closer at the Canon 5D MIV vs Fujifilm S4500, one being a Advanced DSLR and the other is a Small Sensor Superzoom by manufacturers Canon and FujiFilm. There is a crucial difference between the sensor resolutions of the 5D MIV (30MP) and Fujifilm S4500 (14MP) and the 5D MIV (Full frame) and Fujifilm S4500 (1/2.3") use different sensor measurements.

The 5D MIV was introduced 4 years later than the Fujifilm S4500 and that is quite a serious gap as far as tech is concerned. The two cameras come with different body type with the Canon 5D MIV being a Mid-size SLR camera and the Fujifilm S4500 being a SLR-like (bridge) camera.

Before delving straight into a full comparison, below is a simple introduction of how the 5D MIV matches up vs the Fujifilm S4500 in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

When you are going to lug around your camera regularly, you will need to consider its weight and dimensions. The Canon 5D MIV provides physical measurements of 151mm x 116mm x 76mm (5.9" x 4.6" x 3.0") having a weight of 890 grams (1.96 lbs) and the Fujifilm S4500 has dimensions of 118mm x 81mm x 100mm (4.6" x 3.2" x 3.9") along with a weight of 543 grams (1.20 lbs).

Take into consideration, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change based on the lens you have attached at that moment. Here is the front view dimension comparison of the 5D MIV vs the Fujifilm S4500.

Using size and weight, the portability score of the 5D MIV and Fujifilm S4500 is 55 and 67 respectively.

Generally, it is very tough to picture the difference between sensor measurements merely by checking a spec sheet. The graphic here may give you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the 5D MIV and Fujifilm S4500.

As you can see, each of the cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The 5D MIV with its larger sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field less difficult and the Canon 5D MIV will give greater detail using its extra 16 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The younger 5D MIV should have a benefit with regard to sensor innovation.
