What you just did is basically the equivalent of saying that two cars with 300hp each are supposed to be the same, without taking other very important factors into consideration.

Besides the fact that the amount of pixels means pretty much nothing, what ‘huge’ cameras are you talking about? Just look at a red camera for example, those are barely bigger than a human hand and pretty much the same size as a DSLR.

The reason why the entire construction often looks pretty big is the fact that they put on better/bigger batteries, different lenses, huge tripods, some sort of camera stabilizers etc.
