Ricoh GR IV HDF has a
26.0MP APS-C (23.5 x 15.6 mm ) sized CMOS sensor . On the other hand, Canon T7 has a
24.0MP APS-C (22.3 x 14.9 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Digic 4+ processor.
Another difference between these two cameras is that Ricoh GR IV HDF'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 GR IV HDF and T7 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Ricoh GR IV HDF and Canon T7 Cameras
As seen above, Ricoh GR IV HDF has a 1.1x Larger sensor area than Canon T7. Larger sensors give photographer more control on the depth of field and blurry background compared to smaller sensor when shot in 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
Ricoh GR IV HDF
or the
Canon T7 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
