As you can plainly see, both of those cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing but different MP. You should expect to see the Leica CL to produce more detail having an extra 8 Megapixels. Greater resolution will allow you to crop pics a little more aggressively. The older Fujifilm X-A1 will be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
