Plainly, the 2 cameras feature the identical sensor size albeit not the same MP. You should expect the Fujifilm X-A10 to give you extra detail having an extra 6MP. Higher resolution will also let you crop shots way more aggressively. The more aged 40D is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
