Clearly, each of these cameras have different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The G15 with its bigger sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field easier and the FujiFilm JV200 will produce more detail using its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The more modern G15 provides a benefit when it comes to sensor innovation.
