Fujifilm X-T2 vs Leica SL2 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Typically, it can be difficult to visualize the contrast in sensor dimensions simply by seeing technical specs. The picture below might offer you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm X-T2 and SL2.
As you can tell, each of the cameras have got different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The Fujifilm X-T2 due to its smaller sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field tougher and the Leica SL2 will show greater detail as a result of its extra 23 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop pictures much more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm X-T2 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
