The S1R was announced 6 years later than the FH10 and that is quite a significant difference as far as technology is concerned. Both of these cameras come with different body type with the Panasonic S1R being a SLR-style mirrorless camera and the Panasonic FH10 being a Compact camera.

Before getting through a detailed comparison, below is a brief introduction of how the S1R grades against the FH10 with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall rating.

Typically, it can be difficult to imagine the difference between sensor sizing purely by reading through a spec sheet. The graphic below will help provide you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the S1R and FH10.

Clearly, the two cameras have got different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The S1R having a bigger sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field easier and the Panasonic S1R will give you extra detail with its extra 31 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also help you crop shots much more aggressively. The newer S1R provides an edge with regard to sensor tech.
