As you have seen, both the cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The Fujifilm X-A2 having a tinier sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field more challenging and the Leica M-E Typ 220 will offer you more detail using its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will allow you to crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The newer Fujifilm X-A2 is going to have an advantage in sensor innovation.
