Panasonic GH5S has a
10.0MP Four Thirds (17.3 x 13 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Venus Engine 10 processor. On the other hand, Panasonic BGH1 has a
10.2MP Four Thirds (19 x 13mm ) sized MOS sensor .
Another difference between these two cameras is that Panasonic GH5S's sensor lacks anti-alias (Low-Pass) filter. Removing anti-alias filter increases the sharpness and level of detail but at the same time, it increases the chance of moiré occurring in certain scenes.
Below you can see the GH5S and BGH1 sensor size comparison.

Panasonic GH5S and Panasonic BGH1 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
Panasonic GH5S
or the
Panasonic BGH1 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
