The Fujifilm X-Pro3 was manufactured 10 years later than the M9 and that is a fairly large gap as far as camera technology is concerned. The two cameras come with the identical body type (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before going in to a full comparison, below is a short highlight of how the Fujifilm X-Pro3 matches up vs the M9 in relation to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

This is a sample of the gallery pics for Fujifilm X-Pro3 and Leica M9. The entire galleries are available at Fujifilm X-Pro3 Gallery and Leica M9 Gallery.

If you are looking to lug around your camera regularly, you have to take into account its weight and measurements.

Normally, it's hard to imagine the contrast in sensor measurements only by viewing a spec sheet. The graphic underneath will provide you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the Fujifilm X-Pro3 and M9.

As you can see, both of the cameras have got different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm X-Pro3 featuring a smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallower DOF trickier and the Fujifilm X-Pro3 will result in more detail due to its extra 8MP. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop images much more aggressively. The more modern Fujifilm X-Pro3 should have an edge when it comes to sensor tech.
