Casio EX-ZR100 vs Panasonic FH10 Sensor Comparison

In many cases, it is difficult to imagine the gap between sensor sizes merely by reading through a spec sheet. The pic here may give you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the EX-ZR100 and FH10.

Clearly, the two cameras have the same sensor dimensions but different megapixels. You should expect to see the Panasonic FH10 to resolve extra detail having its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will help you crop images a bit more aggressively. The more aged EX-ZR100 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
