Fujifilm X-H2S vs Sony A7 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Sometimes, its tough to imagine the contrast in sensor measurements simply by looking through technical specs. The visual here will help offer you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm X-H2S and A7.
As you have seen, both cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm X-H2S due to its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF tougher and the Fujifilm X-H2S will render more detail utilizing its extra 2MP. Greater resolution can also let you crop pics a bit more aggressively. The more recent Fujifilm X-H2S provides a benefit with regard to sensor technology.
