All in all, each of the cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The FH22 using its tinier sensor will make getting shallower DOF more challenging and the Sony A7c will offer greater detail having an extra 10 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The more aged FH22 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
