Fujifilm X-E4 has a
26.0MP APS-C (23.5 x 15.6 mm ) sized X-Trans CMOS 4 sensor and features X-Processor 4 processor. On the other hand, Nikon D3400 has a
24.0MP APS-C (23.5 x 15.6 mm ) sized CMOS sensor and features Expeed 4 processor.
Another similarity between these two cameras is that both Nikon D3400 and Fujifilm X-E4 sensors lack anti-alias (Low-Pass) filters. Removing anti-alias filter increases the sharpness and level of detail but at the same time, it increases the chance of moiré occurring in certain scenes.
Below you can see the X-E4 and D3400 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Fujifilm X-E4 and Nikon D3400 Cameras
Fujifilm X-E4 and Nikon D3400 have the same sensor sizes so they will provide same level of control over the depth of field when used with same focal length and aperture. On the other hand, since Nikon D3400 has 8% larger pixel area (15.28µm 2 vs 14.12µm 2 ) compared to Fujifilm X-E4, it has larger pixel area to collect light hence potential to have less noise in low light / High ISO images.
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-E4
or the
Nikon D3400 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
