Typically, its difficult to see the difference in sensor dimensions purely by looking through specifications. The picture underneath may offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the GF7 and GXR A16 24-85mm F3.5-5.5.
Plainly, the 2 cameras come with the identical megapixels but not the same sensor dimensions. The GF7 offers the smaller sensor which will make obtaining shallow depth of field tougher. The newer GF7 will have an edge in sensor tech.
