As you have seen, both of those cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same MP. You should count on the Canon SX610 HS to offer greater detail as a result of its extra 10MP. Higher resolution can also let you crop photographs a little more aggressively. The newer SX610 HS is going to have an edge with regard to sensor tech.
