Fujifilm X100T vs Leica Q2 Sensor Comparison

More often than not, its tough to picture the gap between sensor dimensions purely by reviewing technical specs. The pic below might offer you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm X100T and Q2.

As you have seen, both the cameras offer different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The Fujifilm X100T using its tinier sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field more challenging and the Leica Q2 will deliver extra detail using its extra 31 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop pics a little more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm X100T is going to be behind in sensor tech.
