Sigma Quattro H vs Sony A7c Sensor Comparison

Normally, its tough to imagine the difference in sensor sizing only by checking out specs. The photograph underneath might offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the Quattro H and A7c.

As you can plainly see, each of these cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The Quattro H due to its smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallow DOF tougher and the Sigma Quattro H will produce extra detail having its extra 21 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop photos way more aggressively. The older Quattro H will be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
