All in all, both of those cameras provide different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The Fujifilm X-T100 because of its bigger sensor is going to make getting bokeh less difficult and the Fujifilm X-T100 will produce greater detail as a result of its extra 12 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop shots more aggressively. The fresher Fujifilm X-T100 should have a benefit when it comes to sensor technology.
