Fujifilm X-H2S vs Panasonic GH1 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Oftentimes, it can be tough to see the difference in sensor measurements only by checking out technical specs. The graphic underneath may offer you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm X-H2S and GH1.
As you can tell, both of these cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm X-H2S featuring a larger sensor will make getting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Fujifilm X-H2S will show more detail as a result of its extra 14 Megapixels. Greater resolution will allow you to crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The fresher Fujifilm X-H2S is going to have an edge when it comes to sensor innovation.
