More often than not, it can be difficult to envision the contrast between sensor sizes only by reading technical specs. The picture here might provide you a clearer sense of the sensor dimensions in the L32 and Efina.

As you have seen, the 2 cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You can expect to see the Nikon L32 to offer you greater detail due to its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also let you crop pics somewhat more aggressively. The newer L32 is going to have an edge in sensor innovation.
