As you can see, both the cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The D780 with its larger sensor is going to make getting bokeh less difficult and the Nikon D780 will give greater detail because of its extra 15 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The fresher D780 should have a benefit in sensor tech.
