As you have seen, both of these cameras provide different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The S1R featuring a bigger sensor is going to make shooting bokeh simpler and the Panasonic S1R will resolve greater detail as a result of its extra 31MP. Higher resolution will help you crop pictures more aggressively. The fresher S1R should have a benefit with regard to sensor technology.
