Usually, its hard to envision the gap in sensor sizes purely by looking through a spec sheet. The picture underneath might offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the EX-ZR300 and Fujifilm F800EXR.
As you can see, the 2 cameras have the same resolution albeit not the same sensor sizes. The EX-ZR300 contains the smaller sensor which is going to make obtaining shallower DOF harder.
