Plainly, each of these cameras feature different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The T200 using its tinier sensor will make achieving shallow depth of field more challenging and the FujiFilm T200 will deliver extra detail using its extra 8MP. Greater resolution will help you crop photos way more aggressively. The fresher T200 is going to have an edge in sensor technology.
