As you can tell, both cameras have different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The EX-H15 with its bigger sensor will make getting shallow depth of field easier and the Casio EX-H15 will show extra detail using its extra 1 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop shots a bit more aggressively. The older EX-H15 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
