Often, it is very difficult to see the gap between sensor sizes only by going over a spec sheet. The image here will offer you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the S1R and S5 II.

As you can see, each of these cameras come with the identical sensor size but not the same MP. You should anticipate the Panasonic S1R to offer you extra detail due to its extra 23 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The more aged S1R is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
