Fujifilm X-H2S vs Sony A7R III Sensor Comparison

          

          

            
Oftentimes, it is very hard to picture the difference between sensor sizes just by looking at specs. The picture underneath might give you a clearer sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm X-H2S and A7R III.
As you can plainly see, both of the cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The Fujifilm X-H2S using its tinier sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field more difficult and the Sony A7R III will resolve more detail having an extra 16MP. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop photographs somewhat more aggressively. The newer Fujifilm X-H2S should have an advantage in sensor tech.
