Usually, it is very tough to imagine the difference between sensor sizes just by checking a spec sheet. The pic underneath should offer you a stronger sense of the sensor dimensions in the XC10 and Fujifilm XF10.

As you can see, both of these cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The XC10 featuring a tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field trickier and the Fujifilm XF10 will give you greater detail having its extra 12 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also help you crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The more aged XC10 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
