As you have seen, both cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The fp due to its larger sensor will make shooting bokeh simpler and the Sigma fp will render more detail as a result of its extra 5 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop images a bit more aggressively. The more recent fp will have an edge when it comes to sensor tech.
