Sometimes, it's difficult to visualize the gap in sensor sizes just by checking out technical specs. The pic underneath will provide you a greater sense of the sensor dimensions in the FS7 and TS2.

As you have seen, both the cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The FS7 using its smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field more challenging and the Panasonic TS2 will produce greater detail using its extra 4MP. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop photographs somewhat more aggressively. The more aged FS7 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
