Normally, it can be tough to see the difference between sensor measurements merely by reading through specs. The photograph underneath will help give you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm X-T4 and S5 II.
As you can plainly see, the two cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm X-T4 because of its tinier sensor will make getting shallow DOF more challenging and the Fujifilm X-T4 will resolve greater detail having its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop photographs far more aggressively. The older Fujifilm X-T4 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
