Sometimes, it's hard to picture the gap in sensor measurements just by seeing technical specs. The visual here should offer you a stronger sense of the sensor dimensions in the Z6 II and FE-5020.

As you can tell, both cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The Z6 II using its bigger sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field easier and the Nikon Z6 II will provide greater detail because of its extra 13MP. Higher resolution will also help you crop shots far more aggressively. The younger Z6 II should have an advantage when it comes to sensor innovation.
