Quite often, it is very difficult to see the gap in sensor sizes just by looking through technical specs. The image below will help provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the SX400 IS and GXR P10 28-300mm F3.5-5.6 VC.
As you have seen, both cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements but not the same resolution. You can anticipate the Canon SX400 IS to result in more detail because of its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution will enable you to crop images much more aggressively. The younger SX400 IS will have an edge when it comes to sensor technology.
