In many cases, it is very tough to visualise the difference in sensor sizing simply by viewing specs. The photograph below may offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the SX130 IS and Fujifilm XP50.
As you can plainly see, both of those cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same MP. You can expect the Fujifilm XP50 to result in more detail having an extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also let you crop photographs far more aggressively. The older SX130 IS will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
