Sometimes, it is very tough to picture the gap between sensor sizes only by checking technical specs. The pic underneath might provide you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the 60Da and Fujifilm S9400W.

As you can tell, both of the cameras feature different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The 60Da having a larger sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF less difficult and the Canon 60Da will resolve more detail having an extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop photos way more aggressively. The more aged 60Da is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
