Oftentimes, its tough to visualise the contrast in sensor measurements merely by going through specifications. The visual underneath will give you a stronger sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm X-T1 and S1.
Plainly, both the cameras provide different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The Fujifilm X-T1 because of its smaller sensor will make achieving shallow depth of field more difficult and the Panasonic S1 will provide greater detail as a result of its extra 8MP. Greater resolution can also let you crop images more aggressively. The older Fujifilm X-T1 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
