The A7 III was announced 4 years later than the a5000 and that is a fairly serious gap as far as camera technology is concerned. Both the cameras have different body design with the Sony A7 III being a SLR-style mirrorless camera and the Sony a5000 being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera.

Before getting straight to a in depth comparison, here is a concise synopsis of how the A7 III matches up against the a5000 with regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Quite often, it can be difficult to envision the contrast in sensor sizing only by checking out specifications. The graphic below may give you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the A7 III and a5000.

To sum up, both of those cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The A7 III with its bigger sensor will make getting shallow DOF simpler and the Sony A7 III will produce extra detail with its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop photographs more aggressively. The younger A7 III is going to have an edge when it comes to sensor tech.
