As you have seen, both of those cameras come with the identical sensor size but not the same megapixels. You can anticipate the Panasonic LZ40 to offer more detail as a result of its extra 8 Megapixels. Greater resolution will let you crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The older L110 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor tech.
