Casio EX-Z2000 vs Panasonic S1H Sensor Comparison

Clearly, both the cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The EX-Z2000 due to its tinier sensor will make shooting shallow DOF trickier and the Panasonic S1H will offer more detail as a result of its extra 10MP. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop shots far more aggressively. The older EX-Z2000 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
