Canon R6 II vs Panasonic G7 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Typically, its tough to picture the contrast in sensor sizing simply by checking out a spec sheet. The graphic below may give you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the R6 II and G7.
Clearly, the 2 cameras have got different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The R6 II featuring a larger sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF less difficult and the Canon R6 II will show more detail due to its extra 8 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also let you crop photos much more aggressively. The fresher R6 II provides a benefit when it comes to sensor tech.
