As you can see, each of the cameras provide different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The Fujifilm A150 featuring a tinier sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF more challenging and the Fujifilm X10 will give extra detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop images more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm A150 is going to be behind in sensor innovation.
