Fujifilm X-T4 vs Leica CL Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
More often than not, it is tough to visualise the gap between sensor sizes purely by reviewing technical specs. The picture here might offer you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm X-T4 and CL.
As you have seen, the 2 cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You can expect to see the Fujifilm X-T4 to offer you extra detail having its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also let you crop photos much more aggressively. The fresher Fujifilm X-T4 will have a benefit when it comes to sensor innovation.
