Fujifilm X-T4 vs Panasonic G9 Sensor Comparison

		

		

			
In many cases, its difficult to visualise the difference between sensor measurements only by reviewing a spec sheet. The visual here may offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm X-T4 and G9.
Clearly, both of these cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm X-T4 featuring a larger sensor will make achieving shallow depth of field easier and the Fujifilm X-T4 will offer greater detail as a result of its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also let you crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The more recent Fujifilm X-T4 is going to have an advantage with regard to sensor technology.
