>>4144843>xtrans makes everything as softit's actually the opposite
X-Trans has less color noise at high ISO less moiré
sharper compared to cameras with same pixel number and optical low pass filter, unless the processing in camera is very aggressive
more pleasing “film-like” grain at high ISO
Bayer Pros are 20%-30% less processing power required
cheaper to produce than X-Trans
X-Trans is better for image quality
Bayer is better for features and speed, unless Fujifilm can compensate for the extra 20-30% processing power required by the X-Trans sensor with a more powerful processor
The unique 6×6 color filter array of the X-Trans sensor gives more accurate color reproduction and, by removing the optical low pass filter present in most Bayer sensor cameras, it also boosts resolution
