Fujifilm X-A7 has a
24.0MP APS-C (23.5 x 15.7 mm ) sized CMOS sensor . On the other hand, Canon 1200D has a
18.0MP APS-C (22.3 x 14.9 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Digic 4 processor.
Fujifilm X-A7's sensor provides 6MP more than Canon 1200D'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 X-A7 and 1200D sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Fujifilm X-A7 and Canon 1200D Cameras
As seen above, Fujifilm X-A7 has a 1.1x Larger sensor area than Canon 1200D. 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
Fujifilm X-A7
or the
Canon 1200D ,
including hyperfocal distance.
