Fujifilm HS35EXR vs Panasonic FZ1000 Sensor Comparison

As you have seen, both cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm HS35EXR using its tinier sensor will make achieving shallow DOF tougher and the Panasonic FZ1000 will offer more detail with its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The older Fujifilm HS35EXR is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
