Kodak M340 vs Sony W510 Sensor Comparison
Quite often, it's difficult to envision the gap in sensor sizing purely by looking through technical specs. The graphic here will provide you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the M340 and W510.
As you have seen, both of those cameras come with the identical sensor size albeit not the same megapixels. You should expect the Sony W510 to result in more detail due to its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The older M340 will be behind when it comes to sensor innovation.
