Typically, it's hard to see the gap between sensor sizes only by checking specs. The picture here might provide you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the R50 and Fujifilm X-T1 IR.
As you can plainly see, both of those cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing but not the same megapixels. You can anticipate the Canon R50 to give more detail as a result of its extra 8MP. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop photos a little more aggressively. The newer R50 will have an advantage when it comes to sensor tech.
