Clearly, both of those cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the FujiFilm T300 to offer greater detail having its extra 2MP. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The more recent SX510 HS is going to have a benefit when it comes to sensor technology.
