As you can tell, each of the cameras provide different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The S95 having a larger sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field easier and the Casio EX-ZR1000 will provide extra detail with its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop pics more aggressively. The older S95 will be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
