Casio EX-H20G vs Sony A7R III Sensor Comparison

Usually, it is very hard to imagine the gap between sensor measurements only by reviewing a spec sheet. The visual underneath might provide you a stronger sense of the sensor sizes in the EX-H20G and A7R III.

As you can see, the two cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The EX-H20G having a tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field tougher and the Sony A7R III will deliver extra detail with its extra 28MP. Higher resolution will enable you to crop photographs much more aggressively. The older EX-H20G is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
