The 77D was launched 4 years later than the Fujifilm S8500 and that is quite a large difference as far as tech is concerned. Both of these cameras come with different body type with the Canon 77D being a Mid-size SLR camera and the Fujifilm S8500 being a SLR-like (bridge) camera.

Before we go in to a thorough comparison, below is a short summary of how the 77D scores vs the Fujifilm S8500 with regard to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Following is a preview of the gallery photos for Canon EOS 77D & Fujifilm FinePix S8500. The complete galleries are viewable at Canon 77D Gallery & Fujifilm S8500 Gallery.

If you are looking to carry your camera often, you will want to think about its weight and proportions.

Often, it is very tough to imagine the contrast between sensor sizing only by reading through technical specs. The graphic below might offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the 77D and Fujifilm S8500.

As you have seen, the 2 cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The 77D due to its bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field less difficult and the Canon 77D will resolve extra detail utilizing its extra 8 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also let you crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The newer 77D should have an advantage in sensor tech.
