Canon SX60 HS vs Fujifilm X-H1 Sensor Comparison

Oftentimes, it's difficult to picture the difference in sensor sizes merely by researching a spec sheet. The pic below may provide you a stronger sense of the sensor dimensions in the SX60 HS and Fujifilm X-H1.

Clearly, the 2 cameras offer different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The SX60 HS because of its smaller sensor is going to make achieving bokeh tougher and the Fujifilm X-H1 will result in extra detail having its extra 8MP. Greater resolution will let you crop images a little more aggressively. The more aged SX60 HS will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
