The G100 was revealed 6 years after the LF1 which is quite a sizable gap as far as tech is concerned. Both of the cameras have different body design with the Panasonic G100 being a SLR-style mirrorless camera and the Panasonic LF1 being a Compact camera.

Before going into a in depth comparison, here is a brief highlight of how the G100 matches up versus the LF1 with regard to portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Often, its difficult to picture the contrast between sensor dimensions merely by looking at technical specs. The picture underneath should provide you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the G100 and LF1.

As you can tell, both of the cameras have different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The G100 with its bigger sensor is going to make shooting bokeh easier and the Panasonic G100 will resolve greater detail because of its extra 8MP. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop shots a bit more aggressively. The newer G100 should have an edge with regard to sensor technology.
