Fujifilm X-T20 vs Leica SL2 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
Usually, its hard to visualize the contrast in sensor dimensions only by going through specifications. The picture underneath might give you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm X-T20 and SL2.
To sum up, each of these cameras provide different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The Fujifilm X-T20 featuring a smaller sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field harder and the Leica SL2 will provide extra detail as a result of its extra 23 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop pictures more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm X-T20 will be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
