Generally, it is very tough to see the difference between sensor measurements simply by going over technical specs. The graphic below may provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the SX600 HS and Fujifilm Z33WP.

As you can tell, both of these cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing but not the same MP. You should anticipate the Canon SX600 HS to offer greater detail using its extra 6MP. Greater resolution will enable you to crop pics a little more aggressively. The newer SX600 HS is going to have an advantage when it comes to sensor innovation.
