Normally, it is hard to visualise the contrast in sensor dimensions only by checking out technical specs. The picture underneath should offer you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the SX710 HS and V-Lux 2.

As you have seen, both of those cameras have got the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same resolution. You can count on the Canon SX710 HS to show more detail due to its extra 6MP. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop photographs much more aggressively. The younger SX710 HS is going to have an edge in sensor tech.
