Canon R6 has a
20.0MP Full frame (36 x 24 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Digic X processor. On the other hand, Sony A7 II has a
24.0MP Full frame (35.8 x 23.9 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Bionz X processor.
Below you can see the R6 and A7 II sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Canon R6 and Sony A7 II Cameras
Canon R6 and Sony A7 II have almost the same sensor size, so neither of them has any significant advantage over the other in terms of providing control over depth of field when used with the same focal length and aperture.

Sensor size sets the circle of confusion, so it drives how much depth of field each
of these bodies gives you at a given aperture. You can calculate it exactly for the
Canon R6
or the
Sony A7 II ,
including hyperfocal distance.
