Normally, it is very difficult to picture the contrast in sensor dimensions just by checking out a spec sheet. The picture here will give you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the SX610 HS and Quattro H.

Clearly, both of the cameras have got different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The SX610 HS due to its smaller sensor is going to make getting shallower DOF tougher and the Sigma Quattro H will provide more detail due to its extra 25MP. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop pics much more aggressively. The more aged SX610 HS will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
