Canon 650D vs Fujifilm S1 Sensor Comparison

Normally, it is hard to picture the contrast between sensor sizing just by reading technical specs. The photograph here will provide you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the 650D and Fujifilm S1.

As you can tell, both of the cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The 650D with its larger sensor is going to make achieving bokeh simpler and the Canon 650D will offer you greater detail having an extra 2MP. Greater resolution will also help you crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The older 650D is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
