More often than not, its difficult to imagine the difference between sensor measurements purely by reviewing technical specs. The graphic below may provide you a better sense of the sensor sizes in the T200 and XZ-2 iHS.

As you can tell, each of these cameras offer different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The T200 because of its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallow DOF trickier and the FujiFilm T200 will offer you greater detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Greater resolution will allow you to crop photos a little more aggressively. The older T200 is going to be behind in sensor tech.
