More often than not, it is very tough to envision the difference in sensor sizes just by researching a spec sheet. The pic underneath should provide you a clearer sense of the sensor dimensions in the Q7 and Quattro H.

Clearly, both of the cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The Q7 featuring a smaller sensor will make achieving shallower DOF more difficult and the Sigma Quattro H will provide you with extra detail due to its extra 33 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The more aged Q7 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
