As you can see, the 2 cameras have different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The S2800HD featuring a smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field trickier and the Fujifilm F900EXR will provide greater detail utilizing its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop pictures a bit more aggressively. The more aged S2800HD will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
