Fujifilm X-H2S vs Sony A7S III Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
More often than not, it is very hard to envision the difference between sensor dimensions only by reviewing specifications. The pic underneath will help offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm X-H2S and A7S III.
To sum up, the 2 cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The Fujifilm X-H2S with its tinier sensor will make achieving shallow DOF more difficult and the Fujifilm X-H2S will deliver greater detail having an extra 14MP. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop images a bit more aggressively. The more recent Fujifilm X-H2S will have an advantage in sensor tech.
