Fujifilm X-E2S vs Panasonic FZ47

Below is a extensive comparison of the Fujifilm X-E2S and Panasonic FZ47, one being a Entry-Level Mirrorless and the latter is a Small Sensor Superzoom by brands FujiFilm and Panasonic. There is a sizeable difference among the image resolutions of the Fujifilm X-E2S (16MP) and FZ47 (12MP) and the Fujifilm X-E2S (APS-C) and FZ47 (1/2.3") come with different sensor sizes.

The Fujifilm X-E2S was introduced 4 years later than the FZ47 and that is a fairly large gap as far as camera tech is concerned. Both of the cameras offer different body type with the Fujifilm X-E2S being a Rangefinder-style mirrorless camera and the Panasonic FZ47 being a SLR-like (bridge) camera.

Before getting in to a step-by-step comparison, below is a short highlight of how the Fujifilm X-E2S grades vs the FZ47 in the way of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Usually, it's tough to imagine the gap in sensor measurements purely by looking through specs. The graphic here should give you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm X-E2S and FZ47.

All in all, both the cameras offer different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm X-E2S using its bigger sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Fujifilm X-E2S will result in extra detail using its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also let you crop shots a little more aggressively. The younger Fujifilm X-E2S should have a benefit in sensor technology.
