As you can tell, the two cameras offer different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The S1H with its larger sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field less difficult and the Panasonic S1H will resolve extra detail with its extra 10MP. Greater resolution will let you crop photos a little more aggressively. The more modern S1H will have an advantage in sensor innovation.
