More often than not, it is very tough to envision the difference in sensor sizes only by going through specifications. The image underneath might offer you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the 100D and SX130 IS.

Plainly, the 2 cameras feature different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The 100D with its larger sensor will make shooting shallow depth of field simpler and the Canon 100D will produce extra detail because of its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop images way more aggressively. The more modern 100D is going to have a benefit with regard to sensor innovation.
