The X2D was manufactured 5 years later than the TL and that is a fairly serious difference as far as camera technology is concerned. Each of these cameras feature the same body design (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before going into a in depth comparison, here is a quick view of how the X2D grades vs the TL in terms of portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Sometimes, its tough to visualise the contrast in sensor sizing only by seeing specifications. The visual below will help give you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the X2D and TL.

Plainly, both the cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The X2D because of its larger sensor will make shooting shallow depth of field easier and the Hasselblad X2D will produce greater detail due to its extra 84MP. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The fresher X2D will have a benefit with regard to sensor technology.
