Kodak Touch vs Nikon S70 Sensor Comparison
Usually, it is very hard to visualize the contrast in sensor sizes only by viewing specs. The image underneath may provide you a much better sense of the sensor measurements in the Touch and S70.
All in all, each of the cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor sizes. The Touch featuring a smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field more challenging and the Kodak Touch will result in extra detail having its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also allow you to crop pictures way more aggressively. The fresher Touch should have an edge in sensor technology.
