Normally, its hard to see the gap in sensor dimensions only by going through a spec sheet. The pic here may provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the EX-FS10 and L31.
Clearly, both of the cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing but not the same MP. You should anticipate the Nikon L31 to produce greater detail as a result of its extra 7 Megapixels. Greater resolution will allow you to crop images far more aggressively. The more aged EX-FS10 will be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
