As you can see, both the cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Fujifilm X-A3 to resolve extra detail as a result of its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also help you crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The younger Fujifilm X-A3 will have a benefit in sensor technology.
