Casio EX-Z800 vs Sony A7R IV Sensor Comparison

Typically, its hard to imagine the gap in sensor dimensions only by seeing specs. The image here may provide you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the EX-Z800 and A7R IV.

As you can plainly see, both of those cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The EX-Z800 featuring a smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallow DOF more challenging and the Sony A7R IV will produce extra detail due to its extra 47 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop pictures a bit more aggressively. The more aged EX-Z800 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
