Quite often, it's hard to envision the gap between sensor dimensions only by reading specifications. The image below will help offer you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the 400D and S1800.

To sum up, both of those cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The 400D having a larger sensor will make getting shallower DOF less difficult and the FujiFilm S1800 will deliver greater detail because of its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also let you crop images somewhat more aggressively. The more aged 400D is going to be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
