Generally, some of the advantages of the Fujifilm Z1000EXR compared to boutique competitors include: it has way more more zoom (5x vs 1x), has a slightly wider wide angle lens (28 mm vs 35 mm), has a much larger screen (3.5" vs 3.0"), is much smaller (super compact 102x60x18 mm vs standard size 117x81x65 mm) and has better image stabilization (sensor shift vs none).
However, on average it has a much narrower aperture (f/3.9 vs f/2.0), has a significantly lower resolution screen (460k dots vs 1,229k dots), takes much lower resolution photos (10.6 MP vs 24 MP), significantly lower maximum light sensitivity (3,200 ISO vs 25,600 ISO) and doesn't record movies in 24p.
