Sometimes, it's difficult to visualize the gap between sensor measurements merely by reading specifications. The photograph here will give you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the 700D and SX240 HS.

Plainly, both the cameras have different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The 700D because of its larger sensor is going to make shooting bokeh less difficult and the Canon 700D will offer more detail as a result of its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop pics a bit more aggressively. The fresher 700D should have an advantage with regard to sensor innovation.
