Below you can see the L21 and L22 sensor size comparison.
Sensor Size and Resolution Comparison image of Nikon L21 and Nikon L22 Cameras
Nikon L21 and Nikon L22 have almost the same sensor size, so neither of them has any significant advantage over the other in terms of providing control over depth of field when used with the same focal length and aperture.
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
Nikon L21
or the
Nikon L22 ,
including hyperfocal distance.
