Typically, it is very tough to imagine the gap between sensor dimensions just by going over specifications. The picture below may give you a clearer sense of the sensor sizes in the TL320 and HX7V.

Plainly, both cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit different megapixels. You should expect the Sony HX7V to offer extra detail with its extra 4 Megapixels. Higher resolution will also make it easier to crop shots somewhat more aggressively. The more aged TL320 is going to be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor technology.
