Oftentimes, it's hard to visualize the gap in sensor sizes only by going through specifications. The pic below may give you a better sense of the sensor measurements in the V-Lux 4 and WB1100F.

Plainly, the two cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit different megapixels. You should expect the Samsung WB1100F to show greater detail as a result of its extra 4MP. Higher resolution can also make it easier to crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The more aged V-Lux 4 will be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
