As you have seen, the 2 cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The Fujifilm X-S1 due to its tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallow DOF harder and the Panasonic FZ1000 II will resolve more detail as a result of its extra 8MP. Higher resolution can also let you crop photographs far more aggressively. The more aged Fujifilm X-S1 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
