Normally, it's hard to visualize the gap between sensor sizing merely by going over technical specs. The photograph here might give you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the TG-6 and FH25.

As you can tell, the two cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing albeit different MP. You should expect the Panasonic FH25 to deliver greater detail because of its extra 4MP. Higher resolution will enable you to crop pictures far more aggressively. The more recent TG-6 provides an advantage with regard to sensor technology.
