As you have seen, both of the cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The EX-100 because of its bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallower DOF less difficult and the Casio EX-100 will produce greater detail due to its extra 3 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The newer EX-100 provides an advantage with regard to sensor technology.
