In many cases, it is very tough to envision the difference between sensor dimensions purely by reading technical specs. The pic below will offer you a stronger sense of the sensor sizes in the HZ15W and T110.

As you can tell, each of these cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing albeit not the same resolution. You should expect the Sony T110 to offer you more detail having its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also enable you to crop pictures a little more aggressively. The more aged HZ15W is going to be behind with regard to sensor innovation.
