The GF6 was introduced 9 years earlier than the fp L which is a fairly sizable gap as far as camera tech is concerned. Both of these cameras offer the identical body type (Rangefinder-style mirrorless).

Before getting straight into a complete comparison, below is a simple overview of how the GF6 grades against the fp L in regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

Here is a preview of the gallery images for Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF6 and Sigma fp L. The whole galleries are available at Panasonic GF6 Gallery and Sigma fp L Gallery.

When you are aiming to carry around your camera often, you're going to have to think about its weight and proportions.

Usually, it can be difficult to picture the gap in sensor sizes merely by checking out specifications. The image here will help offer you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the GF6 and fp L.

Plainly, both of those cameras offer different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The GF6 with its smaller sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF trickier and the Sigma fp L will provide greater detail using its extra 45MP. Higher resolution will help you crop shots a little more aggressively. The more aged GF6 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
