Canon S110 vs Fujifilm X-A7

On this page, we are looking at the Canon S110 and Fujifilm X-A7, one is a Small Sensor Compact and the other is a Entry-Level Mirrorless by companies Canon and FujiFilm. There is a big difference between the image resolutions of the S110 (12MP) and Fujifilm X-A7 (24MP) and the S110 (1/1.7") and Fujifilm X-A7 (APS-C) have different sensor sizes.

The S110 was unveiled 8 years earlier than the Fujifilm X-A7 which is quite a big gap as far as tech is concerned. Both of the cameras have different body design with the Canon S110 being a Compact camera and the Fujifilm X-A7 being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera.

Before going straight to a detailed comparison, here is a quick summation of how the S110 matches up against the Fujifilm X-A7 for portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Generally, it can be difficult to picture the gap between sensor dimensions only by going over a spec sheet. The pic below may offer you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the S110 and Fujifilm X-A7.

Clearly, both cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The S110 using its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF tougher and the Fujifilm X-A7 will offer you greater detail having an extra 12MP. Greater resolution will allow you to crop pics more aggressively. The more aged S110 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
