Fujifilm X-E2S vs Samsung NX200 Sensor Comparison

All in all, both of these cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same MP. You can count on the Samsung NX200 to give you extra detail as a result of its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also help you crop photographs far more aggressively. The more modern Fujifilm X-E2S will have an advantage when it comes to sensor tech.
