The SX730 HS with its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower DOF more challenging and the Canon SX730 HS will provide greater detail because of its extra 0.3MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The more modern SX730 HS should have an edge with regard to sensor technology.
