Fujifilm S9200 vs Sony RX10 III Sensor Comparison

Quite often, it can be difficult to visualize the gap between sensor dimensions merely by looking at specifications. The pic below will offer you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm S9200 and RX10 III.

To sum up, the 2 cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The Fujifilm S9200 having a tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallower DOF more difficult and the Sony RX10 III will resolve more detail using its extra 4MP. Greater resolution can also help you crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm S9200 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
