As you have seen, both cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The Z70 having a tinier sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field harder and the Panasonic GF7 will give you greater detail using its extra 4MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop pictures far more aggressively. The more aged Z70 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
