In many cases, it's hard to visualise the difference between sensor sizes only by reading through technical specs. The image here might give you a clearer sense of the sensor measurements in the FZ28 and PX.

As you can tell, each of the cameras come with the identical sensor size but not the same MP. You should expect to see the Ricoh PX to give you extra detail having its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop images a good deal more aggressively. The more aged FZ28 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
