Canon R7 vs Sigma fp Sensor Comparison

Quite often, it can be hard to picture the gap between sensor dimensions purely by reading technical specs. The picture below will give you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the R7 and fp.

As you can tell, both the cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The R7 having a tinier sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field more difficult and the Canon R7 will offer you greater detail because of its extra 8MP. Greater resolution will enable you to crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The newer R7 provides an advantage when it comes to sensor innovation.
