As you have seen, both of the cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The Df having a larger sensor will make getting shallower DOF easier and the Nikon Df will resolve more detail with its extra 10MP. Greater resolution can also help you crop images a bit more aggressively. The more modern Df is going to have an edge with regard to sensor technology.
