More often than not, it can be tough to picture the gap between sensor sizes purely by reading through a spec sheet. The pic here might provide you a stronger sense of the sensor measurements in the FZ1000 II and FH22.

Clearly, both of those cameras enjoy different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The FZ1000 II due to its bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field less difficult and the Panasonic FZ1000 II will resolve extra detail having its extra 6MP. Higher resolution will also help you crop pictures far more aggressively. The more modern FZ1000 II should have an edge when it comes to sensor technology.
