Fujifilm X-H2S vs Panasonic S1H Sensor Comparison

In many cases, it is hard to picture the contrast in sensor dimensions only by viewing specifications. The image here will help give you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm X-H2S and S1H.

To sum up, both of the cameras have different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The Fujifilm X-H2S having a smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field more challenging and the Fujifilm X-H2S will provide you with more detail using its extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The fresher Fujifilm X-H2S should have an edge when it comes to sensor innovation.
