Typically, it's tough to envision the difference in sensor dimensions just by looking through technical specs. The pic below should provide you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the SX610 HS and Fujifilm S2 Pro.

As you can tell, both of the cameras have got different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The SX610 HS due to its smaller sensor will make shooting shallower depth of field trickier and the Canon SX610 HS will render more detail as a result of its extra 14MP. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop photos much more aggressively. The more modern SX610 HS will have a benefit in sensor technology.
