Sometimes, it is hard to visualize the contrast between sensor dimensions only by going over a spec sheet. The picture underneath may give you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the G11 and Fujifilm X-A1.

Clearly, the 2 cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The G11 using its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF tougher and the Fujifilm X-A1 will offer extra detail using its extra 6MP. Higher resolution can also help you crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The more aged G11 is going to be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
