Canon M6 MII vs Sony A7c

The following is a extensive assessment of the Canon M6 MII and Sony A7c, both Advanced Mirrorless cameras by manufacturers Canon and Sony. There exists a sizeable gap among the sensor resolutions of the M6 MII (33MP) and A7c (24MP) and the M6 MII (APS-C) and A7c (Full frame) have different sensor sizing.

The M6 MII was introduced 12 months earlier than the A7c so they are of a similar generation. Each of these cameras have the same body design (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before going straight to a more detailed comparison, here is a quick view of how the M6 MII matches up versus the A7c with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Here is a preview of the gallery images for Canon EOS M6 Mark II and Sony Alpha A7c. The whole galleries are available at Canon M6 MII Gallery and Sony A7c Gallery.

For anybody who is aiming to travel with your camera often, you will have to factor its weight and measurements. The Canon M6 MII provides external dimensions of 120mm x 70mm x 49mm (4.7" x 2.8" x 1.9") and a weight of 408 grams (0.90 lbs) while the Sony A7c has proportions of 124mm x 71mm x 60mm (4.9" x 2.8" x 2.4") accompanied by a weight of 509 grams (1.12 lbs).

Do not forget, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will change dependant on the lens you have attached at that time. Below is a front view measurement comparison of the M6 MII against the A7c.

Looking at dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the M6 MII and A7c is 83 and 78 respectively.

Normally, it is tough to imagine the difference in sensor dimensions simply by seeing technical specs. The image here might give you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the M6 MII and A7c.

As you can tell, both of these cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The M6 MII using its smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field more difficult and the Canon M6 MII will produce greater detail using its extra 9 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop pictures more aggressively. The more aged M6 MII will be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
