Quite often, its hard to visualize the contrast between sensor sizes just by looking at a spec sheet. The picture underneath might provide you a better sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm F900EXR and P500.
As you can see, the 2 cameras have different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The Fujifilm F900EXR because of its bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallow DOF less difficult and the Fujifilm F900EXR will give extra detail having its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will let you crop shots a bit more aggressively. The fresher Fujifilm F900EXR should have an edge in sensor innovation.
