Canon R6 vs Fujifilm GFX 50S II Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Normally, its tough to visualize the contrast in sensor dimensions only by researching a spec sheet. The picture below will offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the R6 and Fujifilm GFX 50S II.
As you can see, each of these cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The R6 with its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF more difficult and the Fujifilm GFX 50S II will render extra detail having an extra 31 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The more aged R6 will be behind in sensor tech.
