All in all, the two cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The 350D because of its smaller sensor will make getting shallow depth of field more difficult and the Canon R5 will render more detail due to its extra 37MP. Higher resolution will allow you to crop photographs more aggressively. The older 350D will be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
