Generally, it is difficult to picture the gap in sensor sizes simply by checking out a spec sheet. The pic underneath may give you a far better sense of the sensor dimensions in the ELPH 100 HS and FE-25.

Clearly, both of those cameras provide the same sensor dimensions but different megapixels. You can anticipate the Canon ELPH 100 HS to provide extra detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop images more aggressively. The more recent ELPH 100 HS should have an edge in sensor innovation.
