As you can plainly see, the 2 cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The R-D1x having a smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field more difficult and the Hasselblad X1D II 50C will provide extra detail using its extra 45 Megapixels. Greater resolution will help you crop photos a bit more aggressively. The more aged R-D1x will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
