Canon S110 vs Sony W620 Sensor Comparison
Normally, it is very hard to picture the gap in sensor sizing just by looking through technical specs. The photograph underneath will offer you a far better sense of the sensor measurements in the S110 and W620.
As you have seen, the 2 cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor sizing. The S110 with its bigger sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field simpler and the Sony W620 will result in more detail having an extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also let you crop pictures much more aggressively. The fresher S110 provides an advantage in sensor technology.
