Fujifilm GFX 100S vs Panasonic GH4 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Often, it can be hard to visualise the gap between sensor measurements simply by going over specs. The visual here might provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm GFX 100S and GH4.
All in all, each of these cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm GFX 100S using its larger sensor will make getting shallower DOF easier and the Fujifilm GFX 100S will offer more detail because of its extra 86 Megapixels. Greater resolution will enable you to crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The younger Fujifilm GFX 100S will have an advantage when it comes to sensor innovation.
