Usually, it's hard to imagine the gap between sensor dimensions merely by looking at specifications. The picture below will provide you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the EX-Z450 and fp.

Plainly, both the cameras come with different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The EX-Z450 having a tinier sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field more difficult and the Sigma fp will resolve greater detail with its extra 13MP. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop shots a good deal more aggressively. The more aged EX-Z450 is going to be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
