Typically, its hard to picture the gap between sensor dimensions only by looking at technical specs. The image underneath will help give you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the T300 and Fujifilm X30.

As you have seen, both cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The T300 using its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallow DOF more difficult and the FujiFilm T300 will resolve extra detail with its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop photographs much more aggressively. The more aged T300 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
