Canon 5D vs Canon T7i

Let's look a little more closely at the Canon 5D vs Canon T7i, former is a Advanced DSLR while the other is a Entry-Level DSLR and both of them are built by Canon. There is a considerable difference between the sensor resolutions of the 5D (13MP) and T7i (24MP) and the 5D (Full frame) and T7i (APS-C) use totally different sensor sizing.

The 5D was announced 12 years prior to the T7i which is quite a large difference as far as tech is concerned. Both cameras come with the identical body type (Mid-size SLR).

Before getting straight into a complete comparison, below is a brief highlight of how the 5D matches up against the T7i when it comes to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

Below is a sample of the gallery pictures for Canon EOS 5D & Canon EOS Rebel T7i. The whole galleries are viewable at Canon 5D Gallery & Canon T7i Gallery.

In case you're aiming to carry around your camera regularly, you're going to have to factor in its weight and proportions. The Canon 5D offers physical dimensions of 152mm x 113mm x 75mm (6.0" x 4.4" x 3.0") and a weight of 895 grams (1.97 lbs) and the Canon T7i has measurements of 131mm x 100mm x 76mm (5.2" x 3.9" x 3.0") accompanied by a weight of 532 grams (1.17 lbs).

Bear in mind, the weight of an ILC will differ dependant on the lens you have at that moment. The following is the front view scale comparison of the 5D against the T7i.

Taking into account size and weight, the portability score of the 5D and T7i is 55 and 67 respectively.

Usually, it is hard to visualise the contrast between sensor sizes only by reading a spec sheet. The image below should provide you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the 5D and T7i.

Clearly, each of these cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The 5D having a larger sensor will make achieving bokeh less difficult and the Canon T7i will offer extra detail with its extra 11 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop photos somewhat more aggressively. The more aged 5D is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
