Quite often, it is very hard to visualise the difference between sensor sizes simply by reading technical specs. The image here will help offer you a clearer sense of the sensor sizes in the 1200D and EX-FH25.

As you can tell, the 2 cameras provide different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The 1200D using its bigger sensor will make achieving shallow depth of field easier and the Canon 1200D will offer extra detail using its extra 8MP. Higher resolution will let you crop photographs more aggressively. The more recent 1200D is going to have an edge in sensor tech.
