Fujifilm X-E4 vs Panasonic GF2 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
More often than not, it's tough to picture the gap between sensor sizing just by checking a spec sheet. The visual below should give you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm X-E4 and GF2.
Clearly, both of those cameras provide different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The Fujifilm X-E4 because of its bigger sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Fujifilm X-E4 will resolve greater detail due to its extra 14MP. Higher resolution will allow you to crop photographs more aggressively. The fresher Fujifilm X-E4 should have an edge in sensor tech.
