Canon 500D has a
15.0MP APS-C (22.3 x 14.9 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Digic 4 processor. On the other hand, Fujifilm X-T10 has a
16.0MP APS-C (23.6 x 15.6 mm ) sized CMOS X-TRANS II sensor and features EXR Processor II processor.
Below you can see the 500D and X-T10 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Canon 500D and Fujifilm X-T10 Cameras
As seen above, Fujifilm X-T10 has a 1.1x Larger sensor area than Canon 500D. Larger sensors give photographer more control on the depth of field and blurry background compared to smaller sensor when shot in same focal length and aperture.
Sensor size sets the circle of confusion, so it drives how much depth of field each
of these bodies gives you at a given aperture. You can calculate it exactly for the
Canon 500D
or the
Fujifilm X-T10 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
