Plainly, each of these cameras posses different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The SX620 HS due to its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallow DOF tougher and the Canon SX620 HS will offer you extra detail having its extra 8MP. Greater resolution will let you crop photos somewhat more aggressively. The younger SX620 HS provides an edge with regard to sensor innovation.
