As you can tell, each of the cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The Fujifilm X100V using its tinier sensor will make achieving shallower DOF more difficult and the Fujifilm X100V will offer more detail because of its extra 1MP. Higher resolution will let you crop pictures way more aggressively. The younger Fujifilm X100V will have an advantage with regard to sensor innovation.
