Fujifilm S5 Pro has a
6.0MP APS-C (23 x 15.5 mm ) sized CCD sensor . On the other hand, Leica X2 has a
16.0MP APS-C (23.6 x 15.8 mm ) sized CMOS sensor .
Leica X2's sensor provides 10MP more than Fujifilm S5 Pro's sensor, which gives a significant advantage in real life. You can print your images larger or crop more freely.
On the other hand, please keep in mind that Max sensor resolution is not the only determinant of resolving power. Factors such as the optical elements, low pass filter, pixel size and sensor technology also affects the final resolution of the captured image.
Below you can see the S5 Pro and X2 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Fujifilm S5 Pro and Leica X2 Cameras
Fujifilm S5 Pro and Leica X2 have almost the same sensor size, so neither of them has any significant advantage over the other in terms of providing control over depth of field when used with the 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
Fujifilm S5 Pro
or the
Leica X2 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
