Often, its difficult to visualise the contrast in sensor measurements merely by seeing technical specs. The graphic underneath will help give you a greater sense of the sensor sizing in the P300 and S810c.

As you can tell, both the cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same resolution. You should expect the Nikon S810c to produce greater detail due to its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop photographs a little more aggressively. The older P300 will be behind when it comes to sensor technology.
