Normally, it is difficult to visualize the gap in sensor dimensions simply by going through a spec sheet. The picture here should provide you a greater sense of the sensor measurements in the M9-P and WB350F.

Clearly, both of the cameras offer different megapixels and different sensor dimensions. The M9-P featuring a larger sensor is going to make getting shallower DOF less difficult and the Leica M9-P will provide extra detail having its extra 2MP. Greater resolution will also let you crop photos a little more aggressively. The more aged M9-P will be behind in sensor technology.
