All in all, the 2 cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The GH5S having a larger sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field simpler and the Panasonic TS10 will produce greater detail because of its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop images somewhat more aggressively. The more recent GH5S should have a benefit when it comes to sensor innovation.
