Typically, it is very difficult to envision the difference between sensor sizes simply by going over a spec sheet. The picture here might provide you a stronger sense of the sensor sizes in the EX-S5 and TX7.

Clearly, both of these cameras provide different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The EX-S5 with its bigger sensor will make shooting bokeh simpler and the Sony TX7 will offer you extra detail using its extra 1MP. Higher resolution can also let you crop pictures more aggressively. The more aged EX-S5 is going to be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
