Sometimes, its tough to visualize the gap between sensor sizing simply by reviewing specifications. The graphic below may offer you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm X-A7 and X-S20.
Plainly, both the cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing but different MP. You can expect to see the Fujifilm X-S20 to offer you more detail due to its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop pics a little more aggressively. The older Fujifilm X-A7 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
