Canon R5 C vs Leica M Edition 60 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Typically, its difficult to see the gap in sensor measurements purely by researching a spec sheet. The visual below will provide you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the R5 C and M Edition 60.
Clearly, both of the cameras feature the identical sensor size albeit not the same MP. You should count on the Canon R5 C to render more detail as a result of its extra 21MP. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop pictures way more aggressively. The newer R5 C is going to have a benefit in sensor innovation.
