Fujifilm X-H2S vs Olympus E-M5 III Sensor Comparison

Normally, its tough to envision the contrast in sensor sizing simply by going through a spec sheet. The visual here will provide you a better sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm X-H2S and E-M5 III.

Clearly, both of the cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The Fujifilm X-H2S having a larger sensor will make achieving shallow depth of field easier and the Fujifilm X-H2S will provide extra detail having an extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop images somewhat more aggressively. The more recent Fujifilm X-H2S is going to have an advantage with regard to sensor tech.
