Remember that, the weight of an Interchangeable Lens Camera will vary depending on the lens you choose at that time. Here is a front view physical size comparison of the SX710 HS versus the SX220 HS.

Taking into account dimensions and weight, the portability rating of the SX710 HS and SX220 HS is 89 and 96 respectively.

Quite often, it is difficult to envision the difference between sensor measurements only by reading specifications. The visual here may offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the SX710 HS and SX220 HS.

To sum up, each of these cameras have the same sensor dimensions albeit not the same resolution. You should count on the Canon SX710 HS to offer you greater detail because of its extra 8MP. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop photographs a bit more aggressively. The newer SX710 HS will have an advantage when it comes to sensor technology.
