Generally, it's difficult to envision the difference between sensor sizes only by reading through a spec sheet. The picture here should offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizing in the ST600 and W570.
As you can see, both of those cameras have the same sensor dimensions but not the same resolution. You should expect to see the Sony W570 to resolve extra detail using its extra 2 Megapixels.
