Fujifilm X-S20 vs Olympus E-P7 Sensor Comparison

          

          

            
Quite often, it's tough to see the gap between sensor sizes only by reading through technical specs. The pic underneath will give you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the X-S20 and E-P7.
As you have seen, both of these cameras feature different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The X-S20 because of its bigger sensor will make getting shallow DOF less difficult and the Fujifilm X-S20 will resolve extra detail as a result of its extra 6MP. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop photographs way more aggressively. The more modern X-S20 is going to have an advantage when it comes to sensor innovation.
