As you can see, each of the cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm F200EXR due to its bigger sensor will make achieving shallow depth of field less difficult and the Fujifilm SL240 will give greater detail due to its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will let you crop pictures way more aggressively. The older Fujifilm F200EXR is going to be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
