Normally, its tough to see the contrast between sensor sizes only by reading through technical specs. The picture here might offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the S1H and GR Digital III.

As you can tell, both the cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The S1H due to its bigger sensor will make shooting bokeh easier and the Panasonic S1H will resolve more detail due to its extra 14 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also let you crop photographs somewhat more aggressively. The younger S1H is going to have an advantage when it comes to sensor innovation.
