Canon SX530 HS vs Fujifilm IS Pro

Lets look a little more in depth at the Canon SX530 HS versus Fujifilm IS Pro, one being a Small Sensor Superzoom and the other is a Pro DSLR by manufacturers Canon and FujiFilm. There exists a crucial gap among the sensor resolutions of the SX530 HS (16MP) and Fujifilm IS Pro (6MP) and the SX530 HS (1/2.3") and Fujifilm IS Pro (APS-C) provide totally different sensor size.

The SX530 HS was introduced 7 years later than the Fujifilm IS Pro and that is a fairly serious gap as far as camera technology is concerned. The two cameras feature different body design with the Canon SX530 HS being a SLR-like (bridge) camera and the Fujifilm IS Pro being a Large SLR camera.

Before we go right into a detailed comparison, here is a concise synopsis of how the SX530 HS grades versus the Fujifilm IS Pro when considering portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

The following is a sample of the gallery pics for Canon PowerShot SX530 HS and Fujifilm FinePix IS Pro. The whole galleries are available at Canon SX530 HS Gallery and Fujifilm IS Pro Gallery.

If you're going to carry your camera, you will need to factor in its weight and proportions. The Canon SX530 HS enjoys external measurements of 120mm x 82mm x 92mm (4.7" x 3.2" x 3.6") accompanied by a weight of 442 grams (0.97 lbs) and the Fujifilm IS Pro has measurements of 147mm x 113mm x 74mm (5.8" x 4.4" x 2.9") with a weight of 920 grams (2.03 lbs).

Always remember, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change dependant on the lens you are working with at the time. Underneath is a front view proportions comparison of the SX530 HS against the Fujifilm IS Pro.

Considering dimensions and weight, the portability score of the SX530 HS and Fujifilm IS Pro is 69 and 55 respectively.

Typically, it's hard to visualise the difference in sensor sizing simply by researching a spec sheet. The photograph underneath will provide you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the SX530 HS and Fujifilm IS Pro.

Clearly, the two cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The SX530 HS using its smaller sensor will make achieving shallower DOF more challenging and the Canon SX530 HS will provide you with more detail using its extra 10 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The more modern SX530 HS will have a benefit in sensor technology.
