Fujifilm X-A2 vs Fujifilm X-Pro2 Sensor Comparison

More often than not, it can be hard to visualise the difference in sensor dimensions simply by researching a spec sheet. The pic underneath might provide you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm X-A2 and Fujifilm X-Pro2.

Clearly, both of those cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing but not the same megapixels.
