Often, it can be tough to visualise the difference between sensor dimensions purely by looking at a spec sheet. The image here may provide you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the M530 and S9500.

Clearly, each of the cameras come with the identical sensor size albeit not the same resolution. You should expect the Nikon S9500 to resolve greater detail as a result of its extra 6 Megapixels. Higher resolution will enable you to crop pictures a good deal more aggressively. The more aged M530 is going to be behind in sensor technology.
