Fujifilm X-A7 vs Olympus E-M10 III

Let's take a more detailed look at the Fujifilm X-A7 vs Olympus E-M10 III, both Entry-Level Mirrorless cameras by manufacturers FujiFilm and Olympus. There exists a considerable gap among the image resolutions of the Fujifilm X-A7 (24MP) and E-M10 III (16MP) and the Fujifilm X-A7 (APS-C) and E-M10 III (Four Thirds) offer different sensor measurements.

The Fujifilm X-A7 was manufactured 2 years later than the E-M10 III and that is a fairly large difference as far as camera technology is concerned. Both of these cameras have different body design with the Fujifilm X-A7 being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera and the Olympus E-M10 III being a SLR-style mirrorless camera.

Before we go straight to a in-depth comparison, here is a simple introduction of how the Fujifilm X-A7 grades versus the E-M10 III in regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Following is a sample of the gallery pics for Fujifilm X-A7 & Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark III. The entire galleries are viewable at Fujifilm X-A7 Gallery & Olympus E-M10 III Gallery.

If you're planning to lug around your camera regularly, you will have to consider its weight and measurements. The Fujifilm X-A7 enjoys outside dimensions of 119mm x 68mm x 41mm (4.7" x 2.7" x 1.6") accompanied by a weight of 320 grams (0.71 lbs) and the Olympus E-M10 III has proportions of 122mm x 84mm x 50mm (4.8" x 3.3" x 2.0") and a weight of 410 grams (0.90 lbs).

Take into consideration, the weight of an ILC will differ based on the lens you use during that time. Following is a front view sizing comparison of the Fujifilm X-A7 and the E-M10 III.

Using dimensions and weight, the portability grade of the Fujifilm X-A7 and E-M10 III is 86 and 80 respectively.

Quite often, it can be tough to visualize the gap in sensor measurements just by seeing a spec sheet. The graphic below might give you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm X-A7 and E-M10 III.

Clearly, both cameras provide different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm X-A7 because of its larger sensor is going to make getting shallower DOF simpler and the Fujifilm X-A7 will show extra detail due to its extra 8 Megapixels. Greater resolution will enable you to crop photos more aggressively. The more modern Fujifilm X-A7 should have a benefit with regard to sensor technology.
