Quite often, it is tough to visualise the gap in sensor sizing only by seeing specifications. The graphic below will help give you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the T Type 701 and 1 J4.

Plainly, both of those cameras provide different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The T Type 701 due to its bigger sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field less difficult and the Nikon 1 J4 will provide more detail due to its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop shots more aggressively.
