Fujifilm X-S20 vs Ricoh GR Sensor Comparison

          

          

            
In many cases, its difficult to visualise the contrast between sensor dimensions merely by looking at technical specs. The image below may provide you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the X-S20 and GR.
As you have seen, both the cameras feature the identical sensor size but not the same resolution. You should expect to see the Fujifilm X-S20 to give extra detail having its extra 10MP. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop photos way more aggressively. The more modern X-S20 will have an edge with regard to sensor technology.
