More often than not, it's hard to visualize the gap between sensor sizes only by reading through specifications. The pic underneath should provide you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the M10 and X1D II 50C.

Plainly, both of those cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The M10 using its tinier sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF trickier and the Hasselblad X1D II 50C will give you greater detail because of its extra 33MP. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The more aged M10 is going to be behind in sensor technology.
