Fujifilm X-T5 vs Panasonic GH3 Sensor Comparison

Normally, it is hard to picture the contrast in sensor sizing only by checking out technical specs. The visual here might offer you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm X-T5 and GH3.

As you have seen, the two cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The Fujifilm X-T5 having a larger sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF simpler and the Fujifilm X-T5 will produce greater detail using its extra 24 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop images way more aggressively. The more recent Fujifilm X-T5 should have an edge with regard to sensor innovation.
