On this page, we will be evaluating the Canon RP vs Fujifilm X-T2, both Advanced Mirrorless cameras by companies Canon and FujiFilm. The image resolution of the RP (26MP) and the Fujifilm X-T2 (24MP) is pretty comparable but the RP (Full frame) and Fujifilm X-T2 (APS-C) boast different sensor measurements.

The RP was released 2 years later than the Fujifilm X-T2 and that is a fairly serious difference as far as camera technology is concerned. Each of the cameras have the same body design (SLR-style mirrorless).

Before we go into a complete comparison, here is a concise summation of how the RP matches up versus the Fujifilm X-T2 in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

More often than not, it is hard to picture the difference in sensor sizing simply by going through specifications. The photograph here will help give you a better sense of the sensor sizing in the RP and Fujifilm X-T2.

Plainly, both of those cameras have different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The RP featuring a bigger sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF simpler and the Canon RP will provide extra detail as a result of its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will help you crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The newer RP should have an advantage with regard to sensor technology.
