Taking into consideration dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the FE-25 and ZS45 is 98 and 91 respectively.

Quite often, it is very difficult to see the contrast between sensor sizes simply by going over technical specs. The pic below may provide you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the FE-25 and ZS45.

As you can tell, the 2 cameras come with the identical sensor size albeit not the same MP. You should count on the Panasonic ZS45 to offer more detail having an extra 6MP. Higher resolution will allow you to crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The more aged FE-25 is going to be behind in sensor tech.
