The EX-FH25 using its tinier sensor will make getting shallower depth of field more difficult and the Fujifilm HS30EXR will offer more detail using its extra 6MP. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop images a bit more aggressively. The older EX-FH25 is going to be behind with regard to sensor tech.
