Fujifilm X-S20 vs Sony A6100 Sensor Comparison

          

          

            
Normally, it is very tough to visualise the difference in sensor dimensions purely by going through specs. The picture below might give you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the X-S20 and A6100.
All in all, the 2 cameras feature the identical sensor size albeit not the same MP. You should count on the Fujifilm X-S20 to produce more detail due to its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop pictures way more aggressively. The younger X-S20 will have an advantage with regard to sensor technology.
