To sum up, both the cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The EX-S5 due to its smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field more difficult and the Sigma fp will render more detail due to its extra 16 Megapixels. Higher resolution will enable you to crop shots far more aggressively. The older EX-S5 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
