Fujifilm X-H2S vs Sony A7S Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Generally, it is very difficult to see the contrast between sensor sizes simply by reviewing technical specs. The image underneath may provide you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm X-H2S and A7S.
As you can tell, both of the cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The Fujifilm X-H2S having a tinier sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field more challenging and the Fujifilm X-H2S will offer greater detail with its extra 14MP. Greater resolution can also help you crop images much more aggressively. The fresher Fujifilm X-H2S is going to have a benefit in sensor tech.
