Fujifilm X-S20 vs Panasonic G85 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Oftentimes, it can be hard to imagine the contrast in sensor sizes simply by seeing technical specs. The image underneath may offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the X-S20 and G85.
As you can tell, both of the cameras feature different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The X-S20 using its bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallower DOF simpler and the Fujifilm X-S20 will show more detail because of its extra 10 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop photographs way more aggressively. The younger X-S20 provides an edge in sensor tech.
