Clearly, both of these cameras feature different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The FX48 using its tinier sensor will make getting shallower depth of field harder and the Panasonic G95 will give you extra detail having an extra 8.3 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop images way more aggressively. The more aged FX48 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
