More often than not, it's difficult to envision the contrast between sensor dimensions just by going over a spec sheet. The image underneath will offer you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the Z5 and H200.
Clearly, both of those cameras enjoy different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The Z5 having a larger sensor will make getting bokeh simpler and the Nikon Z5 will offer you more detail having an extra 4MP. Greater resolution will let you crop pics far more aggressively.
