Below you can see the a5000 and R50 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Sony a5000 and Canon R50 Cameras
Sony a5000 and Canon R50 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
Sony a5000
or the
Canon R50 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
