Normally, it is very hard to visualize the contrast in sensor dimensions merely by checking out a spec sheet. The image here will give you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the SX530 HS and ZS35.

Clearly, each of these cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements and the same resolution therefore you should expect comparable quality of files although you may want to factor the production date of the cameras into account. The more recent SX530 HS provides a benefit with regard to sensor technology.
