The A7c was announced 11 years later than the H50 and that is quite a serious gap as far as technology is concerned. The two cameras offer different body type with the Sony A7c being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera and the Sony H50 being a Compact camera.

Before we go straight into a full comparison, below is a concise summary of how the A7c scores versus the H50 in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Here is a preview of the gallery images for Sony Alpha A7c and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H50. The whole galleries are viewable at Sony A7c Gallery and Sony H50 Gallery.

In case you're aiming to lug around your camera regularly, you need to consider its weight and measurements.

Normally, it is very tough to visualize the contrast between sensor measurements purely by checking technical specs. The photograph here will offer you a stronger sense of the sensor dimensions in the A7c and H50.

As you have seen, both the cameras enjoy different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The A7c having a bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field easier and the Sony A7c will resolve greater detail with its extra 15 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop photographs far more aggressively. The more recent A7c should have an advantage when it comes to sensor tech.
