Fujifilm X100V vs Leica Q Sensor Comparison

In many cases, its difficult to picture the contrast between sensor sizing simply by looking at specifications. The photograph underneath might provide you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm X100V and Q.

To sum up, both of these cameras have different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The Fujifilm X100V featuring a tinier sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF tougher and the Fujifilm X100V will give greater detail as a result of its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also let you crop pics a bit more aggressively. The younger Fujifilm X100V provides an edge with regard to sensor technology.
