Fujifilm X-S20 vs Samsung NX mini Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
More often than not, it is very tough to envision the gap between sensor measurements only by reading a spec sheet. The graphic underneath will offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the X-S20 and NX mini.
Clearly, both cameras have got different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The X-S20 having a larger sensor will make shooting bokeh simpler and the Fujifilm X-S20 will offer you greater detail having an extra 5.5 Megapixels. Greater resolution will enable you to crop photos much more aggressively. The more recent X-S20 will have an edge when it comes to sensor tech.
