In many cases, it can be tough to picture the gap in sensor measurements simply by seeing specifications. The graphic here will give you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the SD940 IS and T Type 701.

Plainly, both of those cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The SD940 IS using its smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallow depth of field harder and the Leica T Type 701 will produce more detail with its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will help you crop images much more aggressively. The older SD940 IS will be behind in sensor innovation.
