As you can tell, both of the cameras have got different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The S1H due to its larger sensor will make achieving shallow depth of field less difficult and the Panasonic S1H will provide you with more detail as a result of its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop photos much more aggressively. The more modern S1H is going to have an edge with regard to sensor technology.
