Normally, its hard to envision the contrast in sensor sizes merely by seeing technical specs. The pic here will offer you a more clear sense of the sensor dimensions in the A2200 and A3400 IS.
As you can tell, both of the cameras provide the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same MP. You should count on the Canon A3400 IS to show more detail having an extra 2MP. Higher resolution will enable you to crop pictures more aggressively. The more aged A2200 will be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
