Plainly, both of the cameras offer different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The ELPH 340 HS using its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field harder and the Canon ELPH 340 HS will result in more detail because of its extra 13MP. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop pictures a little more aggressively. The newer ELPH 340 HS provides a benefit with regard to sensor technology.
