Usually, it is difficult to visualise the gap in sensor measurements purely by looking through a spec sheet. The photograph underneath might offer you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the DP1x and DP2x.

Clearly, both of these cameras feature the identical sensor size and the same exact resolution so you can expect comparable quality of images however you will want to factor the launch date of the cameras into account. The older DP1x will be behind in sensor technology.
