Normally, it is very difficult to visualize the difference in sensor measurements just by seeing specifications. The graphic underneath will provide you a more clear sense of the sensor sizes in the FS25 and K-1 II.

Plainly, both of these cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The FS25 because of its smaller sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field more difficult and the Pentax K-1 II will produce greater detail as a result of its extra 24MP. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop photographs somewhat more aggressively. The older FS25 will be behind in sensor technology.
