As you can tell, the two cameras feature different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The EX-Z33 using its tinier sensor is going to make shooting shallow depth of field more challenging and the Sony RX100 V will resolve greater detail using its extra 10 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also help you crop images way more aggressively. The older EX-Z33 is going to be disadvantaged in sensor tech.
