Oftentimes, its difficult to visualize the gap between sensor sizes simply by looking at specifications. The picture here will help give you a greater sense of the sensor dimensions in the C and W730.

Plainly, both of those cameras have got different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The C having a bigger sensor is going to make getting shallower depth of field less difficult and the Sony W730 will resolve extra detail because of its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also let you crop pictures much more aggressively. The younger C should have an advantage in sensor innovation.
