Fujifilm X-T1 vs Fujifilm X-T30 II Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
In many cases, it is hard to visualise the difference between sensor dimensions only by going over a spec sheet. The image below will give you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm X-T1 and Fujifilm X-T30 II.
Clearly, the two cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Fujifilm X-T30 II to offer greater detail having an extra 10 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also let you crop images much more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm X-T1 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
