To sum up, each of the cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same MP. You should expect to see the Canon 7D to offer you more detail with its extra 15 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop pics much more aggressively. The more recent 7D is going to have an advantage in sensor tech.
