Both Canon N and Nikon L110 have 1/2.3-inch sized 12.0 MP resolution sensors so sensor size and resolution is not a differentiator between these two cameras.
Below you can see the N and L110 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Canon N and Nikon L110 Cameras
Canon N and Nikon L110 have the same sensor sizes so they will provide same level of control over the depth of field when used with same focal length and aperture. On the other hand, since Canon N has 33% larger pixel area compared to Nikon L110, it has potential to collect more light on pixel level hence have less noise in low light / High ISO images.
Sensor size sets the circle of confusion, so it drives how much depth of field each
of these bodies gives you at a given aperture. You can calculate it exactly for the
Canon N
or the
Nikon L110 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
