Plainly, both of those cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The FZ60 because of its smaller sensor is going to make getting shallower DOF more challenging and the Panasonic FZ60 will produce more detail due to its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The newer FZ60 provides an edge with regard to sensor tech.
