Usually, it is very tough to picture the difference between sensor measurements just by going over a spec sheet. The graphic here will help give you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the EX-Z800 and A6000.

As you can see, the 2 cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The EX-Z800 having a tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF trickier and the Sony A6000 will deliver greater detail with its extra 10MP. Higher resolution can also help you crop pictures a bit more aggressively. The older EX-Z800 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
