Generally, it can be difficult to visualize the contrast in sensor measurements merely by checking out technical specs. The visual underneath might offer you a clearer sense of the sensor sizes in the SX700 HS and Fujifilm F200EXR.

As you have seen, both cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The SX700 HS using its smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallow DOF more difficult and the Canon SX700 HS will produce extra detail using its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will let you crop pics way more aggressively. The newer SX700 HS should have an advantage in sensor technology.
