Canon M50 vs Fujifilm GFX 100S Sensor Comparison
Normally, its tough to visualize the difference in sensor dimensions simply by going through a spec sheet. The pic here may give you a better sense of the sensor sizing in the M50 and Fujifilm GFX 100S.
Clearly, the 2 cameras offer different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The M50 using its smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field trickier and the Fujifilm GFX 100S will show more detail using its extra 78 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also help you crop photos a little more aggressively. The more aged M50 will be behind with regard to sensor technology.
