All in all, both cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The ELPH 350 HS having a bigger sensor will make shooting shallower DOF less difficult and the Canon ELPH 350 HS will give greater detail using its extra 10 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also let you crop shots a good deal more aggressively. The more recent ELPH 350 HS will have an advantage with regard to sensor tech.
