Fujifilm X-T4 vs Leica SL2-S Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
In many cases, its tough to visualise the difference between sensor measurements merely by looking at technical specs. The graphic underneath may offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm X-T4 and SL2-S.
As you have seen, both of the cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm X-T4 using its tinier sensor will make achieving shallow depth of field trickier and the Fujifilm X-T4 will give you extra detail because of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop pictures far more aggressively. The older Fujifilm X-T4 is going to be behind when it comes to sensor technology.
