Fujifilm India has launched it's latest flagship camera X-T4 in India today at a price of Rs 1,54,999 - Rs 1,99,999 . Is it a better buy than Sony A7III ( Mark 3 ) which now sells around Rs 1,34,900 - Rs 1,54,990 in India? Let's compare the specs between these two flagship cameras. Sony A7 III vs Fujifilm X-T4 - Specs Comparison A7M3 has a bigger Full frame sensor while X-T4 has a smaller APS-C size sensor. Is it a big deal? A full-frame sensor offers better image quality, depth of field, and low light performance. This doesn't mean XT-4 is a bad camera. It's definitely one of the best in the market in terms of image quality and performance. However, Sony has the edge here. There are a few things X-T4 can do but Sony A7M3 can't.  XT-4 can record 4K @ 60fps with ease. Sony can't do that yet. It's a shame there is currently no Sony Alpha camera in the market that can do 4K @ 60fps!  So which one to buy? Sony or Fujifilm? If you have never bo...
