Oftentimes, it can be tough to picture the gap between sensor measurements just by reading specifications. The photograph below will provide you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the EX-ZR1000 and Fujifilm S2 Pro.
Plainly, each of the cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The EX-ZR1000 using its tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallower DOF more difficult and the Casio EX-ZR1000 will offer you more detail with its extra 10 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also let you crop photographs far more aggressively. The newer EX-ZR1000 provides an advantage in sensor technology.
