Fujifilm X-H2S vs Nikon Z6 Sensor Comparison

In many cases, it is tough to imagine the contrast between sensor dimensions purely by looking at a spec sheet. The picture here might give you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm X-H2S and Z6.

As you can see, the two cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The Fujifilm X-H2S having a tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallow DOF more challenging and the Fujifilm X-H2S will resolve greater detail having an extra 1MP. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop images a good deal more aggressively. The fresher Fujifilm X-H2S should have a benefit with regard to sensor technology.
