Fujifilm X-E4 vs Sony a5100 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Sometimes, it is hard to imagine the difference between sensor dimensions only by reviewing a spec sheet. The picture underneath may provide you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm X-E4 and a5100.
Clearly, each of the cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but different MP. You should anticipate the Fujifilm X-E4 to deliver more detail utilizing its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The younger Fujifilm X-E4 should have a benefit when it comes to sensor technology.
