Fujifilm X-E2 vs Sigma fp

Its time to look a little more closely at the Fujifilm X-E2 versus Sigma fp, one being a Entry-Level Mirrorless and the other is a Advanced Mirrorless by competitors FujiFilm and Sigma. There is a big difference between the resolutions of the Fujifilm X-E2 (16MP) and fp (25MP) and the Fujifilm X-E2 (APS-C) and fp (Full frame) offer different sensor sizing.

The Fujifilm X-E2 was unveiled 6 years prior to the fp and that is quite a big gap as far as tech is concerned. Each of these cameras feature the same body design (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before delving into a thorough comparison, here is a short highlight of how the Fujifilm X-E2 matches up against the fp in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

The following is a sample of the gallery pictures for Fujifilm X-E2 and Sigma fp. The full galleries are available at Fujifilm X-E2 Gallery and Sigma fp Gallery.

For anyone who is looking to lug around your camera often, you should consider its weight and volume. The Fujifilm X-E2 comes with outer dimensions of 129mm x 75mm x 37mm (5.1" x 3.0" x 1.5") accompanied by a weight of 350 grams (0.77 lbs) while the Sigma fp has sizing of 113mm x 70mm x 45mm (4.4" x 2.8" x 1.8") with a weight of 422 grams (0.93 lbs).

Do not forget, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will differ based on the lens you are utilising at the time. The following is a front view measurement comparison of the Fujifilm X-E2 against the fp.

Using size and weight, the portability score of the Fujifilm X-E2 and fp is 85 and 84 respectively.

Often, it is difficult to imagine the contrast between sensor measurements just by reading through specifications. The photograph below will help provide you a greater sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm X-E2 and fp.

Plainly, both of these cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm X-E2 using its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field trickier and the Sigma fp will give greater detail having an extra 9MP. Greater resolution can also let you crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The older Fujifilm X-E2 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
