As you can tell, both the cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The WG-4 GPS using its tinier sensor is going to make achieving bokeh harder and the Sony A7c will resolve more detail using its extra 8 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The older WG-4 GPS is going to be behind with regard to sensor tech.
