Normally, it's difficult to envision the gap in sensor sizing merely by researching specifications. The photograph below may offer you a stronger sense of the sensor sizes in the G7 X MIII and D-Lux 7.

To sum up, both of these cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The G7 X MIII using its smaller sensor will make getting shallower DOF more difficult and the Canon G7 X MIII will result in extra detail with its extra 3 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also help you crop shots more aggressively. The more recent G7 X MIII will have an edge with regard to sensor technology.
