To sum up, both of the cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The SX600 HS with its smaller sensor is going to make achieving shallower depth of field more challenging and the Canon SX600 HS will provide you with greater detail using its extra 4MP. Higher resolution can also enable you to crop photographs somewhat more aggressively. The more modern SX600 HS provides a benefit with regard to sensor tech.
