More often than not, it is tough to imagine the gap between sensor measurements simply by going over technical specs. The graphic underneath will give you a more clear sense of the sensor sizes in the 10D and Fujifilm X-M1.

As you have seen, both cameras come with the identical sensor size but different resolution. You should anticipate the Fujifilm X-M1 to offer you extra detail using its extra 10 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop images a good deal more aggressively. The older 10D is going to be behind in sensor innovation.
