Typically, it's hard to picture the difference between sensor sizing merely by looking at specs. The graphic underneath will help give you a better sense of the sensor dimensions in the Fujifilm Z900EXR and FE-25.

All in all, both of these cameras provide different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The Fujifilm Z900EXR having a larger sensor is going to make getting shallower DOF easier and the Fujifilm Z900EXR will give extra detail because of its extra 6MP. Greater resolution will also help you crop photos more aggressively. The newer Fujifilm Z900EXR should have an advantage with regard to sensor tech.
