Typically, it is very difficult to see the contrast between sensor dimensions just by reading a spec sheet. The image underneath may give you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the A7c and HX50V.

As you can see, both of the cameras enjoy different resolutions and different sensor dimensions.

Higher resolution will let you crop photographs far more aggressively. The more modern A7c will have a benefit when it comes to sensor technology.
