Normally, it can be difficult to picture the difference in sensor measurements just by going through a spec sheet. The visual underneath should give you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the 450D and EX-FH100.

Clearly, the two cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The 450D using its bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallow DOF easier and the Canon 450D will show more detail having an extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The older 450D will be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
