In many cases, it is very tough to visualize the difference in sensor dimensions just by seeing a spec sheet. The pic underneath may give you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the SX200 IS and Fujifilm HS35EXR.

Clearly, the two cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The SX200 IS having a smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF harder and the Fujifilm HS35EXR will show greater detail because of its extra 4MP. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop photographs more aggressively. The more aged SX200 IS will be behind when it comes to sensor technology.
