Sometimes, its hard to envision the gap between sensor sizes only by checking technical specs. The pic underneath will help offer you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the EX-H20G and TX66.

As you have seen, each of the cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same resolution.
