Normally, it's tough to visualise the gap between sensor sizing merely by reading through specifications. The photograph underneath will help provide you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the EX-100 and EX-H20G.

Plainly, both of these cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The EX-100 with its larger sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field less difficult and the Casio EX-H20G will give extra detail having an extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop photos much more aggressively. The newer EX-100 is going to have a benefit in sensor innovation.
