Oftentimes, it's hard to envision the contrast between sensor dimensions purely by reading technical specs. The pic here may provide you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the EX-ZR1000 and D-Lux 6.
As you have seen, both of those cameras have different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The EX-ZR1000 because of its tinier sensor will make getting shallower DOF more difficult and the Casio EX-ZR1000 will deliver greater detail utilizing its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution will allow you to crop pictures a bit more aggressively.
