Fujifilm X-H2S vs Panasonic G5 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Normally, it is difficult to visualise the contrast in sensor measurements purely by seeing specifications. The graphic here will offer you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm X-H2S and G5.
Plainly, both cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm X-H2S because of its bigger sensor will make getting shallower DOF simpler and the Fujifilm X-H2S will produce greater detail having its extra 10MP. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The more recent Fujifilm X-H2S is going to have an edge when it comes to sensor innovation.
