Typically, its tough to picture the difference in sensor measurements only by going through a spec sheet. The visual here will offer you a stronger sense of the sensor dimensions in the SX150 IS and ZS10.

As you can see, the two cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements and the same resolution therefore you can expect comparable quality of images though you will want to factor the launch date of the cameras into account. The fresher SX150 IS should have a benefit in sensor technology.
