Canon 90D vs Sigma DP1s

Lets look a little more closely at the Canon 90D vs Sigma DP1s, one being a Advanced DSLR and the other is a Large Sensor Compact by manufacturers Canon and Sigma. There exists a big gap between the sensor resolutions of the 90D (33MP) and DP1s (5MP) but they possess the same exact sensor measurements (APS-C).

The 90D was introduced 10 years later than the DP1s and that is quite a big gap as far as technology is concerned. Both the cameras offer different body type with the Canon 90D being a Mid-size SLR camera and the Sigma DP1s being a Large Sensor Compact camera.

Before getting straight into a in depth comparison, below is a simple introduction of how the 90D scores versus the DP1s in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

The following is a sample of the gallery pics for Canon EOS 90D and Sigma DP1s. The whole galleries are provided at Canon 90D Gallery and Sigma DP1s Gallery.

When you are aiming to carry your camera frequently, you'll need to factor its weight and dimensions. The Canon 90D has outside dimensions of 141mm x 105mm x 77mm (5.6" x 4.1" x 3.0") and a weight of 701 grams (1.55 lbs) while the Sigma DP1s has dimensions of 109mm x 60mm x 31mm (4.3" x 2.4" x 1.2") and a weight of 270 grams (0.60 lbs).

Take into consideration, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ dependant on the lens you choose at that time. Underneath is the front view measurement comparison of the 90D vs the DP1s.

Taking into account dimensions and weight, the portability score of the 90D and DP1s is 60 and 90 respectively.

Sometimes, its tough to envision the difference between sensor sizing only by looking at technical specs. The graphic below might give you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the 90D and DP1s.

As you can tell, the two cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing but not the same megapixels. You should expect to see the Canon 90D to give you extra detail using its extra 28MP. Greater resolution will enable you to crop photos a little more aggressively. The fresher 90D is going to have an advantage with regard to sensor innovation.
