Often, its difficult to visualize the gap between sensor measurements purely by checking a spec sheet. The photograph underneath will give you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the EX-FH100 and fp L.

As you can see, both of those cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The EX-FH100 with its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF trickier and the Sigma fp L will give more detail having an extra 51MP. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The older EX-FH100 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
