The F70EXR with its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field tougher and the Fujifilm X-S10 will offer you more detail because of its extra 16 Megapixels. Greater resolution will allow you to crop pics way more aggressively. The older F70EXR is going to be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
