More often than not, it is very hard to picture the contrast between sensor measurements merely by checking specifications. The photograph below will help offer you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the A10 and S4100.

To sum up, both the cameras provide the same sensor dimensions albeit different megapixels. You should count on the Nikon A10 to give more detail because of its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also help you crop pictures more aggressively. The more modern A10 should have an advantage in sensor technology.
