In many cases, it is hard to see the gap between sensor measurements simply by going over technical specs. The visual here may offer you a stronger sense of the sensor sizes in the Elph 115 IS and TL240.
As you can tell, both of those cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same resolution.

The more modern Elph 115 IS is going to have a benefit with regard to sensor tech.
