More often than not, its hard to visualise the difference in sensor measurements simply by looking through technical specs. The visual underneath should provide you a more clear sense of the sensor sizes in the SX710 HS and TG-1 iHS.

As you can tell, both of the cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same resolution. You should expect the Canon SX710 HS to render extra detail using its extra 8 Megapixels. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The more modern SX710 HS is going to have a benefit with regard to sensor tech.
