Fujifilm X-S20 vs Nikon P530 Sensor Comparison

          

          

            
Usually, its difficult to envision the gap in sensor sizing just by going through technical specs. The visual here might give you a more clear sense of the sensor sizes in the X-S20 and P530.
As you can tell, the two cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The X-S20 with its bigger sensor will make achieving shallow DOF simpler and the Fujifilm X-S20 will show greater detail with its extra 10MP. Higher resolution will also help you crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The more modern X-S20 is going to have an advantage when it comes to sensor innovation.
