Let's look more closely at the Panasonic G100 and Panasonic FS7, one being a Entry-Level Mirrorless and the other is a Ultracompact and they are both manufactured by Panasonic. There exists a sizeable gap between the image resolutions of the G100 (20MP) and FS7 (10MP) and the G100 (Four Thirds) and FS7 (1/2.5") offer totally different sensor size.

Sometimes, its hard to envision the contrast between sensor sizing just by reading through a spec sheet. The photograph here may offer you a better sense of the sensor sizing in the G100 and FS7.

Clearly, each of the cameras provide different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The G100 having a larger sensor will make getting shallow depth of field simpler and the Panasonic G100 will give more detail because of its extra 10 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop images more aggressively. The newer G100 is going to have a benefit in sensor innovation.
