Plainly, the two cameras posses different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The SX600 HS having a smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallow DOF tougher and the Canon SX600 HS will result in greater detail because of its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also help you crop pictures somewhat more aggressively.
