As you can tell, both of those cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You can expect to see the Fujifilm XF10 to provide you with extra detail because of its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also help you crop photos much more aggressively. The older M will be behind when it comes to sensor technology.
