As you have seen, both the cameras come with the identical sensor size but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Canon R5 to provide extra detail as a result of its extra 21 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also help you crop images a good deal more aggressively. The more recent R5 will have a benefit in sensor technology.
