Canon R100 vs Nikon Z6 II Sensor Comparison
In many cases, it can be difficult to envision the gap in sensor sizes simply by going through specifications. The picture here may give you a greater sense of the sensor dimensions in the R100 and Z6 II.
Plainly, the 2 cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The R100 because of its smaller sensor will make shooting shallow depth of field harder and the Nikon Z6 II will show greater detail as a result of its extra 1 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop photographs somewhat more aggressively. The more recent R100 is going to have a benefit in sensor innovation.
