In many cases, it can be hard to picture the difference between sensor sizing just by reading specifications. The photograph underneath might give you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the EX2F and A7c.

Plainly, the 2 cameras feature different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The EX2F due to its tinier sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF more difficult and the Sony A7c will offer greater detail having its extra 12 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also help you crop images way more aggressively. The older EX2F is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
