Fujifilm X-S20 vs Sony A7R V Sensor Comparison

          

          

            
Sometimes, it's difficult to visualise the contrast in sensor sizes only by going through specifications. The picture underneath should provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the X-S20 and A7R V.
To sum up, both of these cameras feature different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The X-S20 due to its smaller sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field tougher and the Sony A7R V will provide greater detail as a result of its extra 35 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop pics way more aggressively. The fresher X-S20 will have an edge when it comes to sensor technology.
