Clearly, both the cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The S110 with its bigger sensor is going to make shooting shallow DOF easier and the Pentax RZ10 will produce extra detail with its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will let you crop photographs a good deal more aggressively. The more recent S110 provides an advantage with regard to sensor technology.
