Sometimes, it's tough to envision the difference between sensor dimensions simply by going over technical specs. The pic below might give you a stronger sense of the sensor sizing in the T300 and ZS70.

As you can tell, each of these cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same MP. You should expect the Panasonic ZS70 to offer you more detail as a result of its extra 6MP. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop photographs far more aggressively. The more aged T300 is going to be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
