Clearly, both of those cameras offer different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The FH25 featuring a tinier sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field trickier and the Sony ZV-1 will deliver extra detail as a result of its extra 4MP. Higher resolution can also help you crop photographs a little more aggressively. The more aged FH25 is going to be behind in sensor technology.
