Fujifilm X-E4 vs Panasonic GX850 Sensor Comparison

          

          

            
Sometimes, it is very hard to imagine the contrast in sensor sizes only by seeing specifications. The picture below might offer you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm X-E4 and GX850.
Plainly, the two cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The Fujifilm X-E4 because of its larger sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field less difficult and the Fujifilm X-E4 will show extra detail as a result of its extra 10 Megapixels. Greater resolution will help you crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The fresher Fujifilm X-E4 should have an edge in sensor technology.
