The 5D was introduced 5 years earlier than the SD15 which is quite a big difference as far as tech is concerned. Both of these cameras feature the same body design (Mid-size SLR).

Before we go right into a more detailed comparison, here is a quick introduction of how the 5D grades against the SD15 with regard to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

Here is a sample of the gallery pictures for Canon EOS 5D & Sigma SD15. The whole galleries are available at Canon 5D Gallery & Sigma SD15 Gallery.

If you are looking to carry around your camera frequently, you are going to need to consider its weight and proportions.

In many cases, it's tough to see the contrast between sensor sizes only by going over specifications. The image here may provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the 5D and SD15.

Plainly, each of these cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The 5D having a larger sensor will make shooting shallow DOF simpler and the Canon 5D will deliver extra detail using its extra 8MP. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop photos way more aggressively. The more aged 5D is going to be behind in sensor tech.
