To sum up, both cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The EX-FC150 using its smaller sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field tougher and the Casio EX-FC150 will show more detail with its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop images a bit more aggressively. The more modern EX-FC150 is going to have an advantage with regard to sensor tech.
