Fujifilm X-H2S vs Sony A7R IV Sensor Comparison

					

					

						
Often, its difficult to imagine the gap between sensor sizing simply by going over specifications. The graphic below may provide you a better sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm X-H2S and A7R IV.
To sum up, both of these cameras have got different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The Fujifilm X-H2S due to its tinier sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field harder and the Sony A7R IV will deliver greater detail having its extra 35MP. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop photos much more aggressively. The newer Fujifilm X-H2S provides a benefit with regard to sensor tech.
