As you have seen, the 2 cameras have different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The S1 with its larger sensor will make getting bokeh simpler and the Panasonic S1 will give you more detail because of its extra 18 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also let you crop pics a bit more aggressively. The newer S1 is going to have a benefit with regard to sensor technology.
