As you can see, each of these cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You should expect to see the Canon R7 to offer more detail having its extra 27 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop images much more aggressively. The younger R7 is going to have an edge in sensor technology.
