Fujifilm X-H2S vs Panasonic S1 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Oftentimes, it is hard to envision the difference in sensor dimensions merely by checking out specifications. The picture underneath will provide you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm X-H2S and S1.
Plainly, each of the cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The Fujifilm X-H2S due to its smaller sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field trickier and the Fujifilm X-H2S will show greater detail utilizing its extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The more modern Fujifilm X-H2S will have a benefit with regard to sensor innovation.
