Fujifilm X-T1 vs Olympus E-M10 IV Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Normally, it's tough to visualize the gap between sensor sizing merely by checking specs. The graphic here should provide you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm X-T1 and E-M10 IV.
All in all, both the cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The Fujifilm X-T1 having a bigger sensor is going to make getting bokeh simpler and the Olympus E-M10 IV will give you more detail using its extra 4MP. Higher resolution will also help you crop pictures more aggressively. The older Fujifilm X-T1 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
