Canon R5 C vs Canon RP Sensor Comparison
Oftentimes, it is difficult to visualise the gap between sensor measurements simply by reading through a spec sheet. The graphic underneath might provide you a clearer sense of the sensor dimensions in the R5 C and RP.
As you can see, both of these cameras feature the identical sensor size albeit not the same MP. You should count on the Canon R5 C to resolve greater detail having its extra 19 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop photographs way more aggressively. The younger R5 C is going to have a benefit in sensor technology.
