Typically, it can be difficult to visualise the difference in sensor measurements just by researching a spec sheet. The graphic here might offer you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm X10 and Fujifilm X70.

Clearly, the two cameras offer different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm X10 having a smaller sensor will make getting shallow depth of field more difficult and the Fujifilm X70 will provide you with extra detail having an extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also let you crop images a little more aggressively. The older Fujifilm X10 will be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
