Canon A2400 IS vs Sony WX350 Sensor Comparison

          

          

            
Typically, it is hard to picture the gap in sensor measurements just by seeing technical specs. The visual below will give you a better sense of the sensor sizing in the A2400 IS and WX350.
As you have seen, both cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but different megapixels. You should anticipate the Sony WX350 to provide greater detail because of its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also allow you to crop photos somewhat more aggressively. The older A2400 IS will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
