As you have seen, both of these cameras have different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The C140 because of its smaller sensor is going to make getting shallow depth of field more challenging and the Panasonic TS10 will provide extra detail due to its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution will help you crop images a bit more aggressively. The older C140 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
