Fujifilm X-S20 vs Sony A7c Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Generally, its difficult to picture the contrast between sensor sizes just by looking at a spec sheet. The picture here may give you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the X-S20 and A7c.
As you can see, both of the cameras enjoy different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The X-S20 featuring a tinier sensor is going to make getting shallower DOF tougher and the Fujifilm X-S20 will give greater detail as a result of its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop photos far more aggressively. The fresher X-S20 should have an edge in sensor technology.
