Sometimes, it is tough to visualise the difference in sensor measurements purely by seeing a spec sheet. The visual here might provide you a clearer sense of the sensor sizing in the L110 and S4300.

As you can see, both cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Nikon S4300 to show extra detail with its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also help you crop pics a little more aggressively. The older L110 will be disadvantaged in sensor innovation.
