As you have seen, each of these cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The FE-25 because of its smaller sensor will make shooting shallow DOF harder and the Pentax 645D will provide more detail due to its extra 30 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The older FE-25 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
