As you can see, both of those cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The S3200 using its tinier sensor will make getting shallower depth of field more challenging and the FujiFilm S3200 will offer you more detail because of its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also let you crop photographs somewhat more aggressively. The more recent S3200 will have an advantage with regard to sensor technology.
