More often than not, it can be tough to visualize the difference between sensor sizes purely by going over a spec sheet. The image here may offer you a more clear sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm X-E2S and E-P7.

Clearly, both of the cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The Fujifilm X-E2S with its bigger sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF less difficult and the Olympus E-P7 will offer you greater detail because of its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will help you crop shots a good deal more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm X-E2S is going to be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
