Generally, it's tough to visualise the difference between sensor measurements just by checking specs. The visual here will help give you a stronger sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm Z35 and P300.

All in all, the two cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same MP. You can expect the Nikon P300 to give you greater detail using its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also let you crop photographs much more aggressively. The older Fujifilm Z35 is going to be behind with regard to sensor tech.
