Typically, it is very difficult to picture the gap in sensor measurements merely by researching specs. The photograph below should provide you a more clear sense of the sensor measurements in the ELPH 510 HS and Fujifilm F660EXR.

All in all, both of the cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The ELPH 510 HS with its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallow DOF more difficult and the Fujifilm F660EXR will render more detail having an extra 4MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop pictures a good deal more aggressively.
