Plainly, both the cameras provide different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The EX-S5 because of its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF tougher and the FujiFilm HS20 EXR will provide you with extra detail as a result of its extra 7 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop pics more aggressively. The older EX-S5 will be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
