Typically, it is very tough to picture the contrast between sensor dimensions purely by reviewing specs. The pic below will provide you a stronger sense of the sensor dimensions in the FH25 and A7c.

All in all, both of the cameras provide different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The FH25 because of its tinier sensor is going to make achieving shallower DOF more difficult and the Sony A7c will deliver extra detail due to its extra 8 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop images more aggressively. The more aged FH25 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
