Here we are comparing two cameras with different body types: Fujifilm XP130, which was introduced in January 2018 is a Waterproof camera with a 16.0MP 1/2.3 sensor whereas Canon 1D X III, which was introduced in January 2020 is a Pro DSLR camera with a 20.0MP Full frame sensor. There is 23 months difference between XP130 and 1D X MIII so we don't expect to see a huge technology difference between these two cameras but it would still give an advantage to younger 1D X MIII, especially in sensor tech.
Comparing a DSLR camera to a Fixed Lens camera is not an easy task but we will do our best to make this a fair comparison. Fortunately, you can't go wrong with any of these cameras as we rank them amongst Top 10 cameras in their classes. Fujifilm XP130 is ranked
#6 out of 77 Waterproof cameras with an overall score of 52 whereas Canon 1D X III is ranked
#2 out of 36 Pro DSLR cameras with an overall score of 79.
