Normally, it is hard to see the gap in sensor dimensions purely by looking through a spec sheet. The image underneath will offer you a better sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm JX370 and ZS45.
As you can see, each of the cameras feature the identical sensor size but not the same MP. You can expect to see the Panasonic ZS45 to result in greater detail using its extra 2MP. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop images way more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm JX370 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
