In many cases, its tough to see the contrast in sensor measurements purely by going through a spec sheet. The photograph underneath will help give you a more clear sense of the sensor sizes in the M530 and P7100.

Clearly, both of those cameras posses different megapixels and different sensor measurements. The M530 because of its smaller sensor will make achieving shallower depth of field tougher and the Kodak M530 will provide more detail as a result of its extra 2MP. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The older M530 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
