Often, it's difficult to see the difference between sensor sizing merely by reading through technical specs. The graphic below may provide you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the A2200 and Fujifilm X20.

As you can tell, both the cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The A2200 with its tinier sensor will make achieving bokeh more difficult and the Canon A2200 will give more detail using its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The older A2200 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
