Normally, it can be difficult to picture the difference in sensor sizes purely by viewing a spec sheet. The pic underneath might give you a clearer sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm Real 3D W1 and Fujifilm X20.

Clearly, both cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The Fujifilm Real 3D W1 having a smaller sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field trickier and the Fujifilm X20 will result in extra detail using its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop shots a good deal more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm Real 3D W1 will be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
