Canon T7i vs Leica Digilux 3 Sensor Comparison
Often, it is tough to picture the contrast in sensor dimensions just by researching a spec sheet. The image here might give you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the T7i and Digilux 3.
Clearly, both of those cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The T7i using its larger sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field simpler and the Canon T7i will result in greater detail using its extra 17MP. Greater resolution will enable you to crop images somewhat more aggressively. The younger T7i provides an edge when it comes to sensor innovation.
