Quite often, it is difficult to visualize the difference between sensor measurements purely by looking at a spec sheet. The graphic here might give you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the S200EXR and RX10 III.

As you can see, both of those cameras have got different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The S200EXR due to its tinier sensor is going to make getting shallower DOF more difficult and the Sony RX10 III will give extra detail as a result of its extra 8MP. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop images much more aggressively. The older S200EXR is going to be behind in sensor technology.
