Canon R3 vs Fujifilm X-S20 Sensor Comparison

More often than not, its tough to imagine the difference in sensor measurements simply by going through specs. The photograph here will provide you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the R3 and X-S20.

All in all, both of the cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The R3 because of its larger sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field simpler and the Fujifilm X-S20 will show extra detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Greater resolution will let you crop images far more aggressively. The older R3 will be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
