As you can see, both of these cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The EX-FH100 having a tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field more challenging and the Casio EX-FH100 will deliver greater detail using its extra 5 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also help you crop shots a good deal more aggressively. The more modern EX-FH100 should have an advantage with regard to sensor tech.
