Clearly, both of those cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm F600 EXR because of its larger sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field less difficult and the Fujifilm F600 EXR will provide extra detail having its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop images a good deal more aggressively. The more modern Fujifilm F600 EXR should have an edge in sensor tech.
