Quite often, its difficult to visualise the gap in sensor sizing simply by viewing a spec sheet. The graphic below will help give you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the 70D and L10.

As you can see, both of those cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor sizing. The 70D using its bigger sensor will make shooting shallow depth of field easier and the Canon 70D will provide you with extra detail with its extra 10MP. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The more modern 70D will have an advantage when it comes to sensor innovation.
