Fujifilm X-S20 vs Samsung NX20 Sensor Comparison

          

          

            
Oftentimes, it is very tough to visualise the difference in sensor sizing purely by looking through a spec sheet. The graphic below might offer you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the X-S20 and NX20.
As you can see, both the cameras have the same sensor dimensions but not the same megapixels. You can anticipate the Fujifilm X-S20 to render more detail with its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop photos a bit more aggressively. The fresher X-S20 will have a benefit when it comes to sensor tech.
