Quite often, it is hard to visualise the difference in sensor sizes only by checking out technical specs. The pic underneath may provide you a better sense of the sensor sizes in the SD4000 IS and EX-ZR700.
As you have seen, the two cameras have the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same MP. You can expect the Casio EX-ZR700 to provide more detail utilizing its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The more aged SD4000 IS will be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
