Generally, it is very difficult to visualise the contrast between sensor sizes only by reading through specifications. The image underneath may provide you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the EX-S7 and Fujifilm S4200.

Plainly, both the cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same megapixels. You should count on the Fujifilm S4200 to give you greater detail with its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop photographs a little more aggressively. The more aged EX-S7 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
