Often, it is hard to picture the gap between sensor sizes just by checking specifications. The pic underneath might give you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the M50 and Fujifilm X-A2.

To sum up, both cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but different resolution. You should anticipate the Canon M50 to resolve extra detail with its extra 8MP. Greater resolution will allow you to crop images somewhat more aggressively. The newer M50 should have an edge in sensor tech.
