Fujifilm IS Pro vs Nikon D6 Sensor Comparison

Quite often, it is difficult to see the gap between sensor measurements just by going over a spec sheet. The visual here will give you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm IS Pro and D6.

Clearly, both of these cameras have different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm IS Pro with its tinier sensor will make shooting shallower DOF more difficult and the Nikon D6 will deliver extra detail using its extra 15 Megapixels. Greater resolution will let you crop photos a bit more aggressively. The older Fujifilm IS Pro is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
