To sum up, the two cameras provide different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The JV100 with its tinier sensor will make shooting bokeh trickier and the FujiFilm JV100 will give extra detail using its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also help you crop pictures more aggressively. The more aged JV100 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
