Clearly, both of those cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The EX-S200 using its smaller sensor will make getting shallower DOF trickier and the Casio EX-S200 will provide you with more detail having an extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also let you crop images a bit more aggressively. The older EX-S200 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
