Plainly, both the cameras come with the identical sensor size but not the same resolution. You can expect to see the Canon SX700 HS to provide you with more detail due to its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop images a good deal more aggressively. The more aged ELPH 510 HS will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
