Fujifilm X-T2 vs Nikon L100 Sensor Comparison

More often than not, it is very difficult to visualise the difference in sensor sizing purely by going through specifications. The visual here should provide you a clearer sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm X-T2 and L100.

Plainly, both of the cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The Fujifilm X-T2 using its bigger sensor will make shooting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Fujifilm X-T2 will provide greater detail with its extra 14 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also help you crop pictures more aggressively. The fresher Fujifilm X-T2 is going to have an advantage in sensor tech.
