Plainly, both the cameras offer different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The FZ1000 having a larger sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field less difficult and the Panasonic FZ1000 will produce greater detail using its extra 8MP. Greater resolution can also help you crop images a little more aggressively. The fresher FZ1000 provides a benefit in sensor innovation.
