Fujifilm X-H2 vs Nikon Z7 Sensor Comparison

As you can tell, the two cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The Fujifilm X-H2 having a smaller sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field more challenging and the Nikon Z7 will provide you with more detail with its extra 6MP. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop shots far more aggressively. The newer Fujifilm X-H2 should have a benefit in sensor technology.
