As you can tell, the 2 cameras offer the same exact sensor sizing but not the same resolution. You should anticipate the Nikon A900 to provide greater detail due to its extra 8 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also let you crop images a little more aggressively. The older EX-ZR100 will be disadvantaged when it comes to sensor tech.
