Fujifilm X-A3 vs Fujifilm X-E4 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Normally, it is difficult to see the contrast between sensor sizes purely by reviewing specs. The picture underneath may give you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm X-A3 and Fujifilm X-E4.
As you can plainly see, both of those cameras provide the same sensor dimensions but not the same megapixels. You can expect to see the Fujifilm X-E4 to offer you extra detail because of its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop photos more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm X-A3 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
