Both Sigma Quattro H and Canon R5 II have 45.0 MP resolution sensors but Sigma Quattro H's sensor is APS-H (26.6 x 17.9 mm ) and Canon R5 II's sensor is Full frame (36 x 24 mm ).
Since Canon R5 II's has a larger sensor area with the same resolution, this means that it also has a larger pixel area hence better light collecting capacity for a given aperture compared to Sigma Quattro H.
Another difference between these two cameras is that Sigma Quattro H'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 Quattro H and R5 Mark II sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Sigma Quattro H and Canon R5 II Cameras
As seen above, Canon R5 II has a 1.8x Larger sensor area than Sigma Quattro H. 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
Sigma Quattro H
or the
Canon R5 II ,
including hyperfocal distance.
One thing to watch when comparing these two: they have different sensor sizes
(APS-H versus Full frame),
so compare them at the same framing rather than the same focal length.
Put the same focal length on the smaller sensor and it will show less depth of
field, not more, because it also crops tighter. The calculator shows the
full frame equivalent focal length for each body so you can match the framing.
