Quite often, its difficult to imagine the gap in sensor sizing only by researching technical specs. The photograph here will help provide you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the FE-4030 and H200.

As you have seen, both of the cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing albeit different resolution. You should count on the Sony H200 to provide you with more detail due to its extra 6MP. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop shots a little more aggressively. The older FE-4030 will be behind in sensor innovation.
