Often, its hard to visualize the difference between sensor sizing just by reading specifications. The graphic here should give you a more clear sense of the sensor sizing in the S620 and SZ-11.
Plainly, both of those cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit different resolution. You should count on the Olympus SZ-11 to offer you greater detail having its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution will make it easier to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The older S620 is going to be behind in sensor technology.
