Sometimes, its tough to visualise the gap in sensor measurements only by going through specs. The photograph here will help give you a better sense of the sensor sizes in the S200EXR and P520.

All in all, both of the cameras have different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The S200EXR with its larger sensor will make shooting shallow depth of field less difficult and the Nikon P520 will provide greater detail having an extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also let you crop pics a bit more aggressively. The older S200EXR will be behind when it comes to sensor technology.
