Normally, it's hard to visualise the gap between sensor measurements only by reading technical specs. The photograph here will provide you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the EX-H30 and A7S III.

As you have seen, the 2 cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The EX-H30 using its tinier sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field harder and the Casio EX-H30 will deliver greater detail using its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will allow you to crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The older EX-H30 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
