SUMMARY
Fujifilm has released five generations of X-Trans sensors, and the conventional wisdom says newer is better. The cameras covered span from the Fujifilm X-Pro1 with its 16 MP X-Trans 1 sensor, through the X100S, X-T2, X-T4, and finally the X-H2 with its 40 MP X-Trans 5. He's since returned to Fujifilm not for the latest hardware but specifically for an X-T3 and an X-S10, both X-Trans 4 bodies, and more recently picked up a secondhand Fujifilm X-S10 with a Fujifilm XF 23mm f/2. Jason Row compares all five Fujifilm X-Trans generations side by side in DXO PhotoLab, revealing that newer isn't always better.
