More often than not, its tough to imagine the difference between sensor sizes purely by looking at specs. The picture underneath might provide you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the C140 and P7700.

All in all, the 2 cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The C140 featuring a tinier sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field harder and the Nikon P7700 will resolve greater detail having its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will help you crop images a good deal more aggressively. The more aged C140 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor innovation.
