The Samsung Galaxy Note Edge captures slightly better photographs and videos than Galaxy S7, because although it has a smaller camera sensor taking less light and washed colors and a way smaller diafragm aperture which is not good for capturing photos or video in poorly lited situations, and they both have the same video frame rate and the same 3840x2160 video quality, the Samsung Galaxy Note Edge also counts with a camera with a much better 16 mega pixels resolution.
Although Galaxy Note Edge is a better device, it is way more expensive than Galaxy S7, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as the Galaxy S7. So if you want that extra specs, you can buy Galaxy Note Edge, else you can save some money and buy the Galaxy S7, letting go a couple specifications.
