In many cases, it is very hard to imagine the gap in sensor sizing just by looking through a spec sheet. The photograph underneath will help provide you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm X-T2 and G100.

As you can see, both of those cameras have got different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The Fujifilm X-T2 featuring a larger sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF simpler and the Fujifilm X-T2 will render greater detail as a result of its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also help you crop images much more aggressively. The older Fujifilm X-T2 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
