All in all, both of those cameras have different megapixels and different sensor sizes. The SX270 HS having a tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field tougher and the Fujifilm F600 EXR will resolve extra detail having an extra 4MP. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The more modern SX270 HS provides an advantage with regard to sensor innovation.
