Quite often, it is tough to visualise the difference in sensor dimensions purely by checking out specs. The pic underneath might offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the Fujifilm HS35EXR and HX400V.
All in all, both cameras have different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The Fujifilm HS35EXR having a larger sensor will make shooting shallow DOF simpler and the Sony HX400V will produce extra detail with its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will let you crop photos a bit more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm HS35EXR will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
