Plainly, each of the cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The EX-Z270 using its tinier sensor will make shooting shallow DOF trickier and the Nikon S6400 will deliver more detail because of its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop photos a bit more aggressively. The more aged EX-Z270 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
