Quite often, it is very tough to visualize the gap between sensor dimensions merely by checking specifications. The pic underneath may offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the M320 and S3700.

To sum up, both of the cameras offer different megapixel count and different sensor dimensions. The M320 using its tinier sensor is going to make achieving bokeh trickier and the Nikon S3700 will resolve more detail having an extra 11MP. Higher resolution will enable you to crop shots a little more aggressively. The more aged M320 is going to be behind in sensor innovation.
