To sum up, the 2 cameras have different resolutions and different sensor dimensions. The G95 having a tinier sensor is going to make getting shallower DOF harder and the Panasonic G95 will resolve more detail because of its extra 4.3 Megapixels. Greater resolution will allow you to crop photos a bit more aggressively. The fresher G95 should have an edge with regard to sensor technology.
