Clearly, each of these cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The 7D MII due to its bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field easier and the Canon 7D MII will render extra detail due to its extra 10 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The younger 7D MII provides an advantage with regard to sensor innovation.
