Generally, it is difficult to see the difference in sensor dimensions just by viewing specifications. The pic below may provide you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the G100 and FH25.

Plainly, each of these cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The G100 with its bigger sensor will make getting bokeh easier and the Panasonic G100 will render more detail having an extra 4MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The more modern G100 is going to have an advantage with regard to sensor innovation.
