All in all, both cameras provide different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The GH5 using its tinier sensor is going to make getting shallower DOF more difficult and the Sigma fp L will resolve more detail with its extra 41MP. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop photographs more aggressively. The older GH5 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
