As you can see, both the cameras enjoy different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The EX-ZR10 using its tinier sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field more difficult and the Fujifilm HS50 EXR will resolve greater detail because of its extra 4MP. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop photos far more aggressively. The older EX-ZR10 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
