Clearly, both cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The L19 due to its smaller sensor is going to make shooting shallower depth of field trickier and the Nikon L24 will produce greater detail having its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also enable you to crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The more aged L19 will be disadvantaged with regard to sensor technology.
