Sometimes, it is difficult to imagine the difference in sensor measurements purely by seeing technical specs. The graphic underneath will help provide you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the G11 and Fujifilm F200EXR.

As you have seen, both of these cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The G11 using its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field more difficult and the Fujifilm F200EXR will show extra detail with its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will enable you to crop photos somewhat more aggressively. The newer G11 provides an advantage in sensor innovation.
