Sometimes, it is tough to imagine the contrast between sensor dimensions just by checking a spec sheet. The pic here should offer you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the VR-320 and A7R IV.

Clearly, both of the cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The VR-320 due to its tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallower DOF harder and the Sony A7R IV will resolve extra detail as a result of its extra 47 Megapixels. Greater resolution will help you crop photos much more aggressively. The more aged VR-320 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
