As you can see, the two cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The SX540 HS because of its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field more challenging and the Canon SX540 HS will give you extra detail due to its extra 4MP. Greater resolution will make it easier to crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The more modern SX540 HS should have an edge in sensor technology.
