      Photography Features

      Fujifilm X-T20 is equipped with X-Processor Pro2 processor and can take pictures up to 6000 x 4000 resolution. It can also take pictures with lower resolution like 4240 x 2832, 6000 x 3376, 4000, x 4000, 4240 x 2832, 4240 x 2384, 2832 x 2832, 3008 x 2000, 3008 x 1688, 2000 x 2000 with 1:1, 3:2, 16:9 aspect ratios. Panasonic Lumix DC-S1 is equipped with Venus Engine processor and can take pictures up to 6000 x 4000 resolution.


      Lens Mount

      Fujifilm X-T20 has Fujifilm X lens mount and Panasonic Lumix DC-S1 has Leica L lens mount. Due to APS-C sensor in Fujifilm X-T20 its crop factor is equal to 1.5x, this means that a 35mm equivalent focal length of the mounted lens will be equal to its actual focal length times 1.5. Due to Full Frame sensor in Panasonic Lumix DC-S1 its crop factor is equal to 1x, this means that a 35mm equivalent focal length of the mounted lens will be equal to its actual focal length.


      No Low-Pass Filter

      There is no optical low-pass filter (OLPF), also known as an anti-aliasing filter, in front of the sensor on either of the cameras. This results in a slightly sharper image but may also introduce moiré patterns and aliasing artifacts when photographing subjects with fine, repetitive patterns or details.


      In-Body Image Stabilization on Panasonic Lumix DC-S1

      Panasonic Lumix DC-S1 has a built-in 5-Axis Sensor Shift in-body image stabilization (IBIS) with 6 stops of compensation. This means that you are still getting vibration reduction when camera is paired with non-image stabilizied lenses. It also works with lenses with optical image stabilization and in combination can achieve even better compensation.

      Connectivity, Battery and Storage

      Built-in Wi-Fi

      Cameras have built-in Wi-Fi (802.11b/g/n 2.4 GHz on Fujifilm X-T20, Wi-Fi 5 802.11ac/b/g/n 2.4/5 GHz on Panasonic Lumix DC-S1) which allows to easily transfer photos and videos from the camera to other Wi-Fi-enabled devices, such as smartphones, tablets, printers, or computers.
