In many cases, it is tough to picture the gap in sensor sizing just by checking out specifications. The graphic below should provide you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the SX510 HS and Fujifilm HS35EXR.

Plainly, both of the cameras provide different resolutions and different sensor sizing. The SX510 HS using its smaller sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF more challenging and the Fujifilm HS35EXR will produce extra detail using its extra 4MP. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop pictures more aggressively. The more modern SX510 HS should have an edge with regard to sensor tech.
