More often than not, it can be difficult to imagine the difference in sensor measurements only by viewing a spec sheet. The visual underneath may give you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the GM5 and Quattro H.

As you can see, the 2 cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The GM5 with its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field more challenging and the Sigma Quattro H will result in greater detail using its extra 29 Megapixels. Greater resolution will enable you to crop images more aggressively. The older GM5 will be behind when it comes to sensor technology.
