Normally, it is tough to imagine the contrast in sensor sizing merely by going through specifications. The photograph here may offer you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the A7R II and NEX-C3.

To sum up, the two cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The A7R II having a bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field simpler and the Sony A7R II will provide greater detail having an extra 26 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also help you crop pictures way more aggressively. The younger A7R II provides a benefit with regard to sensor innovation.
