To sum up, the 2 cameras enjoy the same exact sensor sizing but not the same megapixels. You can expect to see the Nikon L840 to resolve more detail utilizing its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop pics far more aggressively. The more aged L110 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
