More often than not, its difficult to envision the gap in sensor dimensions merely by viewing specifications. The pic underneath should give you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the HS10 and Fujifilm S4200.

Plainly, both of those cameras feature the identical sensor size but not the same megapixels. You should expect to see the Fujifilm S4200 to result in greater detail having an extra 4MP. Greater resolution will help you crop images way more aggressively. The more aged HS10 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
