You missed the important word “not” in my (now purple) post above. When NOT maxxing out the crop.

See, we’ve both actually been in agreement.

I'm still not sure what you're saying.  If you're not "maxing the crop," with the R7, that should mean that even the R7 has an excessively wide angle of view, and will be cropped, with the R5 losing a greater percentage of its sensor area for the final crop of the same photo-op.

Are you, or are you not, saying that the R5 has less final-image-level noise using the same ISO and exposure, when using the same sensor area in mm x mm to form an image?

If so, I don't think that it can be shown in a controlled test, unless it is done wrong, like over-sharpening the R7 at the pixel level, or viewing at 100% (which is a different subject magnification for the two cameras).
