As you have seen, each of these cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Fujifilm JX550 to offer extra detail due to its extra 6MP. Greater resolution will also help you crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm A100 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
