The R-D1 was brought out 10 years prior to the Fujifilm X-M1 and that is quite a sizable difference as far as technology is concerned. Each of the cameras come with the identical body type (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before we go straight into a in depth comparison, below is a simple introduction of how the R-D1 matches up against the Fujifilm X-M1 in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Plainly, both of those cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same MP. You can anticipate the Fujifilm X-M1 to give you more detail having its extra 10 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also let you crop images much more aggressively. The older R-D1 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
